Market analysis for sustainable gardening products and research of marketing strategies. Promotion of a range of sustainable products in the Austrian retail sales market specialized in gardening. Development of a concept for implementation together with one Austrian chain of garden centres (bellaflora).
Positive reinforcement versus punishment - Breaking new grounds in police dog training
Positive reinforcement versus punishment compares the new and the old training schedule for police dogs in Austria. Constrains for police dog services are investigated and evaluated to see, if the new training schedule decreases stress and strain of the dogs.
Possibilities of urban high-rise multi-storey buildings in a timber-frame method with target course eight or more floors
Research of urban high-rise multi-storey buildings in a timber-frame construction method. Fundamental clarification of the feasibility in relation to the supporting structure, fire prevention and security. SWOT analysis as well as economic, ecological research concerning sustainable design.
Post City Linz - Biodiversity in the CO2-neutral urban quarter
The project "Post City Linz" aims to show that a currently unattractive industrial wasteland can be transformed into a microclimatically ambitious, energy- and resource-efficient quarter with 150,000m² of gross floor area by means of an innovative mix of office, commercial, hotel and residential uses. The focus is on the integration of biodiversity promotion, a CO2 neutral energy supply and innovative energy management in the quarter, animal aided design as well as rainwater management based on the principle of the "sponge city".
Potential analysis of compact detection robots for emergency services
This Kiras study investigates the use of compact, practical detection robots for measuring hazardous substances in firefighting, develops operational concepts and evaluates these in realistic exercises. The aim is to reduce the risk to people and increase efficiency during operations.
Potential and concepts for waste water heat recovery in combination with solar collectors and heat pumps (WRGpot)
The objective of the project is to find possibilities for the reduction of heat demand for hot water preparation of low energy and passive house buildings, in order to advance a further step into the direction of plus-energy buildings.
Potential for Growth and Exports of Renewable Energy Systems
Evaluation of mid- and longterm potential for growth and exports in various sectors of renewable energy systems. Analysis of corresponding impacts on employment and value added in Austria. Recommendations for research- and technology development.
PowerShade - Development of electricity-generating shading solutions for energy-flexible buildings in urban space
The main goal of the cooperative R&D project "PowerShade" was the development of low-cost and universally usable electricity-generating shading solutions for energy-flexible buildings in urban space.
PrEMI - Predictive Analytics for Emergency Call Infrastructure
Data analytics and predictive methods for optimizing the operation of critical communication infrastructures, required for emergency call handling in public safety answering points (PSAP).
Pre-DOMIQASOL - Feasibility Study for a Distributed Orbital Measurement Instrument for Quality Assurance of Scientific Operation Space Links
The presented study is a precursor for a follow-up ASAP project aiming at the construction, test, and deployment of the designed instrument in the first phase and the collection and scientific evaluation of a large number of quality measurement in the second phase.
Predicting landslides - Development of hazard-warning maps for landslides from consolidated data inventories
gAia aims to predict the likelihood of potential landslide occurrences by employing methods of modern artificial intelligence (AI) and develop a hazard risk map for landslides. This provides the civil protection authorities and stakeholders with an improved basis for decisionmaking, serving to recommended actions in governmental crisis management in order to avert potential damage at an early stage.
Prepare4EODC-Water
Preparing for the Initial Services of the Earth Observation Data Centre for Water Resources Monitoring
Presentation of the effective use of innovative bioenergy technologies in the Austrian energy system of the future (BioEff)
The study shows possibilities and strategies for the effective use of innovative bioenergy technologies in Austria.
PrimActO
Primary mirror cell with active optics for lightweight telescopes of medium size
ProKlim - Optimisation of Energy Efficiency of automated indoor climate systems by using weather forecasts
Investigation of the basic energy savings potential for buildings in commercial use by including weather forecasts as a variable. Additionally, a concept for integrating weather forecasts into the heating and air conditioning control systems in buildings is planned to be developed. Within the scope of the feasibility study, a detailed analysis of technological possibilities, including both hardware and software, will be conducted.
ProKlim+ - Use of Model Predictive Control to optimize solar power consumption in case of increased energy efficiency.
Using weather forecast for building automation can help improving the energy efficiency of buildings and, thus, saving energy. In the project ProKlim+ the forecast of solar radiation will be used to optimize the building automation to satisfy the needs of the building users, and at the same time to minimize the energy demand on the one hand and to maximize the consumption of self-produced energy on the other hand.
Probing for PV façade systems made of lightweight plastic modules with reversible fittings for new and old buildings (PV-FAS_light + easy)
Probing for a new, simple, cost-effective and building-integrated PV facade system made of plastic PV modules through initial investigations for fixing technology, for building physics, for fire protection and for electrical engineering concerning the usability, the areas of applicability and the yield and application potentialfor new buildings and for existing buildings.
Processing of filter residues of the beer - brewing process for the production of an innovative pharmaceutical substance
The latest technology for the filtration of beer is the use of ion exchangers. The reclaim contains high-potent substances (vitamins and minerals from the yeast, hops and other proteins) in concentrated form which should be processed and characterised. In a further step this substance should be the main ingredient of a food supplement. After a technical adaptation this concept can be used within other ranges of the food and natural substance industry.
Product Service Systems Water
Based on former FdZ projects in the area of PSS, EMA and Zero Emission PSS Water develops and realises a guideline with which sustainable water management in industry and public utiliies as a service can be offered.
