Treeofknowledge

Tree of Knowledge is an online platform for statistical modelling of complex systems. It uses a new approach which allows for significantly more accurate and robust models to be built. This new approach allows Bayesian inference to be done from many different agent-based models and datasets simultaneously. Also modelling building is very easy and fast, as you can use the pre-defined agents from the central repository.

Camo Kit

The Computational Cardiac Modeling group (head: Axel Loewe) aims at formulating the heart's function mathematically and realistically representing it with computational models. Our research is focused on the electrophysiology and mechanics of the heart, which we represent with multiscale models. These models include several biological levels of integration from ion channels via cells to tissues and organs and the relevant phenomena span a multitude of temporal and spatial scales (microseconds to minutes; micrometers to centimeters). The Computational Cardiac Modeling group is committed to method development and the application of computational models to answer questions of clinical relevance. Towards this aim, we pursue two approaches: On the one hand, we investigate fundamental physiological and pathological mechanisms with computational models complementary to classical approaches like cell or animal experiments. The mechanisms and relations regarding disease development, diagnosis, and therapy identified in this way can be applied to the patient's individual situation by physicians. On the other hand, we use personalized models representing an individual patient to support clinical decision making. To personalize models based on measured data of the individual patient, we collaborate closely with the Bioelectric Signals Group. The research in our group happens at the crossroads of engineering, computer science, natural sciences, and medicine. To develop methods and conduct simulation studies, we employ methods of software engineering, algorithmics, numerics, signal processing, data analysis, and statistics.

Center For Global Health Cgh At Tum

The Center for Global Health at the Technical University of Munich (TUM) is concerned with the promotion of health as well as with the prevention of ill-health at a global level. It brings together and initiates research projects and teaching activities that address global health issues across different disciplines. The Center for Global Health therefore connects researchers of different faculties and their research foci. The Center for Global Health was founded in 2017 by the Professors Andrea Winkler and Clarissa Prazeres da Costa. The Center for Global Health is based at the medical faculty of TUM and is financed and supported by the Department of Neurology, Klinikum rechts der Isar / TUM (headed by Prof Hemmer) and the Institute for Medical Microbiology, Immunology and Hygiene at TUM (headed by Prof Busch). This collaboration demonstrates the interdisciplinary approach that is taken at TUM and that is vital for the activities of the Center for Global Health. Our activities include the establishment of collaborative projects that address relevant research questions in Global Health, teaching, as well as discussion forums looking at the different facets of Global Health. We have been able to build a large network of partners in the Global South, especially in sub-Saharan Africa and Southeast Asia due to past and ongoing collaborations. We continuously expand those networks but also want to make them available to other researchers in order to support them in giving their research activities a global footprint.

Chair Of Aroma And Smell Research

Our research focuses on the characterization of aroma and smell by elucidating the structure, the occurrence and the origin of aroma and odor compounds in food and non-food items, in the food value chain, and during manufacturing and recycling processes. Furthermore, we investigate the resorption, metabolisation, excretion and bioactivity of aromatic substances in the human body and unravel structure-activity relationships in olfaction, i.e, the relationship between molecular structure and olfactory perception. In addition, we explore the molecular basis of chemical communication as a widespread phenomenon within and between species for information transfer. The knowledge gained here leads us to better understand smell landscapes: the cultural role of odor in past, present and future. As another mayor line of investigation we also work with biointerfaces in neurobiological processes related to sensory stimuli. The projects targeted in the Biointerfaces Lab span from engineering tools and interfaces for cellular control to elucidating biophysical interfacial mechanisms and the interrogation of cellular signalling in nervous systems.

Chair Of Business Management, Esp. Industrial Management

Industrial production represents a significant economic sector in Germany. Besides technological developments, sophisticated planning and control systems of production processes are particularly important. At the Chair of Industrial Management our main interest is the optimization of business decisions with a focus on industrial manufacturing, but also beyond. In doing so, we particularly rely on quantitative methods and models of Operations Research and thus work across disciplines at the interface of economics with applied computer science and mathematics. With respect to the decision problems considered and the methodological approach, our team is divided into the three areas of Operations Management, Prescriptive Analytics and Applied Operations.

Chair Of Computational Mechanics

The field of computational mechanics is concerned with the investigation and development of numerical, computer-oriented methods as well as the associated algorithms and analysis software to solve engineering problems whose physical behavior can be described by adequate mathematical models. The integrated approach of theory, experiments and numerics in addition to the use of modern computer technology have decisively shaped this area of expertise. The availability of highly powerful analysis systems ranging from personal computers to super computers which are capable of vector and parallel processors in combination with advances in area of theory, metrology and experimental mechanics has enabled new possibilities for virtual design and simulation of complex, intelligent products and processes. It has also become possible to develop realistic computer models for complex systems, with the aid of such models the system behaviour can be accurately described and analysed under different operating conditions. The resulting analysis provides deeper insights and knowledge which lead to further improvement and optimisation of the products and processes. The virtual product development is playing an important and signifcant role in industry as it drastically reduces development time and costs.

Chair Of Fluid Mechanics And Institute Of Aerodynamics

The Chair of Fluid Mechanics and the Institute of Aerodynamics belongs to the department of mechanical engineering of the RWTH Aachen University. The experimental and numerical units plus the laboratory for bio-medical flows constitute the main departments of the institute. Several subsonic, transonic and supersonic wind tunnels and water tunnels are the essential experimental facilities. In addition, there are special test rigs to study flow fields, e.g, within piston engines, through safety valves, and artificial heart valve prosthesis. The measurement methods consist of, e.g, particle-image and particle-tracking velocimetry, laser-doppler and hot-wire anemometry, multi-sensor hot films, differential and Mach-Zehnder interferometry, and schlieren-methods. Continuous as well as pulse lasers and high-speed cameras are part of the experimental setups. Measuring equipment such as hot wires and hot films is in-house manufactured. Workstations and PCs are connected to form a parallel cluster on which computational fluid dynamics simulations are run. Furthermore, the Institute has access to the massively parallel machine of the university's scientific computing center to perform numerical analyses of internal and external, steady and unsteady, laminar and turbulent flows for complex geometries.
