- InstitutionDigital and Autonomous Construction B-1The Institute of Digital and Autonomous Construction (IDAC) conducts interdisciplinary research in all areas of digitalization in civil engineering and is engaged in the exploration of fundamental informational methods for modern civil and environmental engineering. Application areas include cyber-physical systems, smart sensors/actuators, construction robotics, cognitive building, additive manufacturing, and AI-based Industry 4.0 technologies.Director:Type: TUHH Institute
- InstitutionWastewater Management and Water Protection B-2As an international pioneer, the institute conducts research on resource-oriented wastewater systems with recovery of water, nutrients and soil substrates. Further focal points are the elimination of micro-pollutants in wastewater treatment plants as well as water-appropriate and climate-regulating regenerative agriculture for Central Europe and beyond. The Group “Bioresource Management” conducts research on topics related to the combined material and energetic utilization of residual bioresources in interdisciplinary projects with region-specific implementation. These topics are complemented by "Environmental Robotics".Director:Type: TUHH Institute
- InstitutionMaterials, Physics and Chemistry of Buildings B-3The institute, a scientific unit of the University of Technology Hamburg, provides research and teaching, especially in the fields of building materials, physics and chemistry of buildings and building construction. In addition the institute provides services for customers, in particular material testing. Furthermore the institute participates in the formation of standards and guidelines in its fields of research and teaching. The research interests of the institute can be described as: Corrosion and durability of materials and structures, special and high performance materials, test methods for materials and components, connections between composition, structure and properties of the unprocessed materials, during processing and as hardened building materials, as well as energy saving, construction and environment.Director:Type: TUHH Institute
- InstitutionStructural Analysis B-4The Institute for Structural Analysis conducts basic research in the field of computational methods of non-linear structural mechanics. The scientific work is interdisciplinary and primarily methodically oriented. The focus is on the finite element method, innovative design and simulation methods, stability problems, non-linear dynamics and applications of artificial intelligence in structural mechanics. Associated experimental work completes the research profile.Director:Type: TUHH Institute
- InstitutionGeotechnical Engineering and Construction Management B-5Das Institut für Geotechnik und Baubetrieb wurde mit der Berufung von Prof. Dr.-Ing. Jürgen Grabe eingerichtet. Schwerpunkte der Forschung sind Bodenmechanik und Bodendynamik, die Geotechnik im Allgemeinen und die Marine Geotechnik im Besonderen.Director:Type: TUHH Institute
- InstitutionHumanities B-6Das Institut Humanities wurde im Sommer 2000 an der TUHH eingerichtet und wird seitdem von Prof. Dr. Margarete Jarchow geleitet. Das Curriculum setzt Naturwissenschaften und Technologie in einen politisch-historischen und kulturellen Kontext. Gleichzeitig stärkt es die soziale, ethische und kulturelle Kompetenz der Studierenden und fördert ihre schriftliche und mündliche Kommunikationsfähigkeit. In der Forschung liegen die Schwerpunkte auf der Betrachtung und Analyse der Schnittstellen von Kultur und Technik.Director:Type: TUHH Institute
- InstitutionConcrete Structures B-7The Institute of Concrete Structures has been conducting research for a long time on the shear force bearing capacity of reinforced and prestressed concrete components, in particular deck slabs of bridges. More accurate calculation methods are developed on the basis of tests and numerical calculations. Another research focus is numerical modeling as well as stress transfer in concrete cracks.Director:Type: TUHH Workinggroup
- InstitutionMetal and Composite Structures B-8The objectives of the scientific work at the Institute of Metal and Composite Structures are, on the one hand, early detection and localization of degradation in metal structures through acoustic methods and, on the other hand, tailored development of nano- and microstructured hybrid metals aiming at a delay of degradation and understanding of material mechanisms across length scales. The societal impact is increase of lifetime and operational readiness of metal infrastructure at reduced maintenance costs.Director:Type: TUHH Institute
- InstitutionGeo-Hydroinformatics B-9The Institute of Geo-Hydroinformatics has been established in summer 2020. We are interested in hydrological processes, environmental physics and energy related challenges. We focus on creating new knowledge through research and innovation, developing new measurement tools and predictive capabilities to provide accurate understanding of multiphase and multiscale processes occurring near Earth’s surface. We combine theory, state-of-art modelling and experiments using cutting-edge tools such as synchrotron X-ray tomography, thermal imaging, 3D printing, neutron radiography, microfluidics, advanced machine learning, computational fluid dynamics and pore network modelling to cross disciplinary boundaries required to understand the complex mechanisms controlling heat, energy and mass transfer near Earth’s surface with a particular focus on the processes occurring in soil. Our current research projects includes: I) Soil Salinization from Pore- to Global-Scale, II) Fundamentals of Multiphase Flow in Porous Media, III) Soil Water Evaporation Dynamics, IV) Ecohydrology and Sustainable Terrestrial Ecosystems and V) Foam Flow in Porous Media: From Fundamentals to Applications.Director:Type: TUHH Institute
- InstitutionRiver and Coastal Engineering B-10The institute's research activities focus on questions of hydraulic engineering and on questions of the effects of climate change in coastal areas. Emphasis is placed on research on protection against too much water as a result of storm surges, inland flooding and heavy precipitation, and on water management during droughts as protection against too little water. Other focal points include sediment transport and technical solutions for erosion control, as well as the use and development of estuarine areas.Director:Type: TUHH Institute
