Update Prunerstraße - Demonstrative building Prunerstraße 5: climate-neutral transformation of a space programme and an existing building
Together with the Bundesimmobiliengesellschaft (BIG), the University of Art Linz (KUL) aims to develop Prunerstraße 5 into a landmark project that meets the socially relevant demands of a university and at the same time sets progressive standards in the requirements determination, transformation, and sustainable development of existing buildings.
Urban Sky - Satellite-based planning and analysis applications for climate-neutral and resilient cities
The project investigates how satellite data can support cities and municipalities (e.g. urban development, spatial energy planning, mobility transition). Based on demand and potential analyses, service concepts will be derived that integrate existing data and tools with satellite applications. The results will be presented in a study and a Space4Cities implementation roadmap.
Urban consolidation Lehen
The key project "Stadtumbau Lehen" ("urban consolidation Lehen") coordinates several projects at the urban district of Lehen, with the purpose of the raise in energy efficiency and safekeeping of a sustainable development. Four builder (ten teams of architects), two scientifically institutions, the town of Salzburg and two attended departments of the land are working together.
Urban consolidation Lehen - Subproject 2: Development - intelligent E-Monitoring
In the oppositional subproject 2 technical and organisational requirements for the transformation of the innovative Smart Metering-concept will be developed. Through the connection of the application of Smart Metering with an active integration of the inhabitants over mutual communication the concept, which is planned for the key project Urban Consolidation Lehen stands out of other comparable antedated activities.
User-Centred Energy Systems (UsersTCP)
The UsersTCP provides evidence from socio-technical research on the design, social acceptance and usability of clean energy technologies. Users play a central role within energy systems. The findings will support political decisions for a clean, efficient and safe energy system.
V-Form – Manufacturing unreinforced vaulted concrete floors with variable pneumatic formworks
V-Form is working on the development of vaulted concrete floors in terms of structural design and building physics, as well as on a new formwork system. Thanks to the efficient shell construction, around 70% CO2eq-emissions can be saved compared to reinforced concrete flat slabs. The reusable and variable pneumatic formwork system aims to enable the economical production of the double-curved concrete shells.
VALID - Visual Analytics in Data-driven Journalism
Mastering the Information Overload. Processing complex data is essential for quality in data-driven journalism. This research project combines data and visual analytics, with a focus on journalistic needs.
VERITAS-AT
Improvement and verification of urban extreme temperature predictions with satellite and ground observations in Austria
VR4UrbanDev - Virtual Reality as an innovative, digital tool for the integrative urban development of the future
Virtual reality (VR) has the potential to make complex issues more quickly comprehensible and directly tangible. In the VR4UrbanDev project, we are using this potential for energy planning processes for buildings and urban districts. On the basis of test areas, we develop methods for importing and visualising energy-related real-time data and simulation data in the VR environment.
Vertical Farm Aspern - Democratization of vertical farming under consideration of parameters of circular economy
Planning, construction and optimization of a vertical farm for urban food production, involving the users in the operational management. The building and the operator concept represent the entire food value chain, from planting to selling.
Villach KlimaFit - Municipal Transformation Process to Achieve Climate Neutrality in Villach
The strategic framework for achieving climate neutrality has been decided in Villach and the city itself can already point to good results in its own sphere of action (buildings, photovoltaics). However, the lack of own energy and mobility operations, the type and scope of construction/investment projects (third-party projects) and the limited scope for action in strategic development topics (little land owned by the city of Villach) require the adaptation (transformation) of municipal instruments in order to implement climate neutrality holistically.
Vision4Voitsberg - Climate neutrality plan 2040 for the municipality of Voitsberg
Voitsberg aims to support the achievement of national climate goals by developing a tailored roadmap that builds on existing projects and targets climate neutrality by 2040. This roadmap will be created in close collaboration with the city administration, key interest groups, and decision-makers from politics and business.
Vitality City - Holistic energy strategies for cities in transition
Energy simulation of any size city (municipalities) based on the data from laser scanning and satellite analysis (Geodata) to obtain dynamical energy demands and available energy resources.
WAALTeR - Integrated System Solution with Added Value
The project WAALTeR (Wiener AAL TestRegion) combines existing prototypes and solutions to build an integrated AAL system solution which is tested and evaluated in 83 households in Vienna.
WEST-AAL - Individual Bundled Solutions for the Elderly
The project WEST-AAL (AAL Test Region Western Austria) tests individual bundled solutions for elderly people living in different housing and care situations in Tyrol and Vorarlberg.
WISE - Extension of the safety concept for heat pumps with flammable refrigerants for gas boiler replacement
In the project "WISE", safety concepts are being developed for the event of a leak in which flammable refrigerant escapes from the refrigeration circuit. These concepts aim to ensure a higher level of safety for residential installations than is currently required by the safety standard.
Wastewater cycle. Cascadic recycling of wastewater and organic residue streams in buildings.
Basic research is being conducted for a sustainable cycle-oriented system for the building-integrated recycling of wastewater and food waste. This includes nutrient recovery for a sustainable circulation system (production of plant fertiliser and biochar), electricity production to meet the demand (up to 15 %) of plus-energy buildings, as well as water recovery for irrigation of the building's own or urban greenery and for summer cooling.
WattsOK? Robotics and AI Enabled Reuse of PV
WattsOK? optimizes reuse/recycle decisions for used photovoltaic (PV) modules via automation, incl. optical inspection-based decision-AI, electrical measurements, and robotic PV connector exchange for reuse. With this, the project addresses the expected increase in used PV modules. The project aims to enhance efficiency and effectiveness of reuse/recycling decision processes, extending the lifetime of modules through reuse, reducing waste, and promoting a circular economy within the photovoltaic sector.
