KeraSchub - Feasibility Study of Regeneratively Cooled Thrust Chambers Made of C/SiC Ceramic Composites

The KeraSchub study has analyzed whether cost-efficient C/SiC materials could also be used for the design of rocket thrust chambers. The KeraSchub study has performed a material survey and investigated conceptual thrust chamber designs based on these materials. It was determined that deficiencies of cost-efficient materials can be overcome by clever thrust chamber designs. As well as areduction in cost and an increase in lifetime, a significant increase in reliability and safety can possibly be achieved.

KityVR - Artificial intelligence techniques to implement CityGML models and VR visualization

The KityVR project deals with key research aspects at the interface between 3D city models and virtual reality. It addresses questions such as how virtual reality can be used for visualization in the field of 3D city models and how machine learning and statistical methods can be used to enrich or complete energy-related data sets.

KlimaStadtLinz2030: Linz and its path to climate neutrality by 2030 - Preparation for the EU - Mission “100 Climate-neutral Cities by 2030”

The research project investigates whether and how it is possible for the city of Linz to achieve climate neutrality by 2030 within its own sphere of influence. A common vision, which is being developed with the citizens in a participatory manner, unites the opportunities that arise for the city through the measures necessary for this goal.

KoPro Lzk+ - Cost and process optimization in the life cycle of nearly zero energy buildings

The aim of the project was to develop a continuous process chain for the energetic-economic optimization of zero and plus energy buildings. The project focused on proven and new approaches to cost reduction of nearly zero energy buildings (nZEBs) at all stages of the life cycle. The main goal was to identify the extra-costs for nZEBs, and to promote innovative approaches taking into account the cost-effectiveness for all the Stakeholders. A database containing important cost parameters and potential savings will be developed.

LEKOECOS - combined economic-ecological life cycle assessment model

The consumption of ecological and economic resources over the whole life cycle is supposed to be anticipated and optimised in the design process of buildings and refurbishments. A combined life cycle assessment model together with an economic-ecological base element catalogue considering the klima:aktiv criteria was developed based on the structure of the life cycle cost model LEKOS and the ecological valuation tool Ecosoft.

LEO-SLR - Improved kHz-SLR Tracking Techniques and Orbit Quality Analysis for LEO-Missions

Earth observation missions in general and gravity field sensors in particular are naturally designed as low Earth orbiting spacecraft (LEO) with orbit heights of about 200-500 km. In order to fulfil the challenging mission objectives, the precise knowledge of the satellite orbit in space becomes a crucial concern. For these missions precise orbit information is normally provided by GPS / SST observations supported by satellite laser ranging (SLR).

LINE-FEED - Plug-in Photovoltaic Storage for the Wall Socket

The project LINE-FEED developed technologies that are required for a photovoltaic storage system which can be installed by anybody by simply plugging it into a wall socket. The aim was to create a storage system for households in urban areas that do not have the possibility to install a photovoltaic system themselves.
