www.jku.at/Linz, AustriaAbout
The institute's working area focuses on developing lightweight concepts and components to support industrial applications. Both academic education and research at the institute pursue a holistic approach in the scientific field of lightweight design. Based on conventional fields of engineering design and structural analysis, we pay special attention to materials, joining technologies, manufacturing processes, and integrating mechatronic systems (loads and structural health monitoring).
