Research

The Chair of Applied Mechanics is a leading research center in the dynamics of mechanical and robotic systems. The core of its activities focuses on the development of novel simulation and experimental techniques for efficient analysis of complex structural dynamics, and on the design, construction and control of advanced robotic systems. The research of the Chair of Applied Mechanics can be summarized as development, simulation and experimental investigation of complex dynamical and mechatronic systems.

The research is organized in three main areas: Numerical Techniques, Experimental Dynamics, and Robotics. Each research group bundles specific expertise, monitors international advances and actively discusses the future research directions.
