In the Clean Aviation project, Fraunhofer researchers teamed up with partners to develop a system that causes icy spots on aircraft wings to vibrate, removing the ice. This dramatically reduces the ...

How can new bio-based and biohybrid materials with improved features be developed faster? Six Fraunhofer institutes are jointly exploring this question in the SUBI²MA flagship project, using an ...

An innovative measurement method enables optimized battery management in electric vehicles, helping to make them safer and extend their lifespans. Impedance spectroscopy from the Fraunhofer Institute ...

Electric mobility is making great strides in Germany and across Europe. Building further momentum will require an extensive build-out of production capacity for battery cells in this country.

Regular follow-up monitoring is crucial when it comes to treating cancer successfully. In the SPIRABENE project, Fraunhofer Institute for Digital Medicine MEVIS developed a deep learning-based ...

Prepared material for additive manufacturing: Post-consumer waste is processed into filaments for 3D printing. Volumes of plastic waste are rising, having approximately tripled across Germany over the ...

Melanoma is responsible for 60 percent of all malignant skin growths, and the incidence of this kind of cancer has increased dramatically in recent years. It is often detected too late, as diagnostic ...

“Fume events” occur when fluids such as engine oil or hydraulic fluid contaminate the air inside an airplane cabin via the “bleed air” used for air supply and conditioning. Measurements taken in ...

A new UN report finds that more and more electronic waste, or e-waste, is being produced worldwide—recycling efforts are not keeping pace, though. Valuable raw materials are not being recovered and ...

Practical tests in a former basalt mine: The right-hand receiver antenna of the passive radar is aligned with a Starlink satellite, while the left-hand receiver antenna points toward the controlled ...

District heating networks are growing increasingly complex as a result of feeding in renewable energy and the trend toward decentralization. In the AD Net Heat project, Fraunhofer researchers are ...
