Schematic representation of M-DAB project goals

The figure shows schematically how the M-DAB project can have a positive impact on reducing the primary resources used /increasing the amount of recycling in the construction sector by improving the data situation and the spatial location of material resources in the city.

Simulation and visualization prototype

The figure shows a screenshot of the visualization prototype with a three-dimensional map representation of the calculated quantities of building materials per district. Thereby, district base areas are extruded in height depending on the material quantities. Colors indicate the dominating material group (in this representation predominantly concrete incl. screed). The color assignment follows ÖNORM A-6240. Left of the map, the scenario editor is shown, which allows setting of demolition rates for buildings of different construction periods as well as assumptions for the future population growth and the housing demand per inhabitant. Right of the map is a detailed analysis for the 22nd district of Vienna marked on the map. A bar chart shows the material quantities per material group in tons. In the navigation bar on top of the map, scenarios from the scenario editor can be loaded and saved, and it is also possible to switch between the map view and other diagram views. Below the map is a time slider that can be used to track the calculated values of the scenarios over time between the year 2020 and the year 2050.

Floor and building area potentials (>550 m² floor area) per building block in Vienna.

This figure shows 2 choropleth maps of Vienna a) the "unused floor area potentials" in Vienna and b) building area potentials (in square meters), - unbuilt building land, each per building block. In both categories, the potentials are mainly found in the districts north of the Danube, but also in the south of Vienna and in Simmering, whereas floor area potentials can be found in the entire city area.

Prototype A - Turn window opening to inside

This window has a smooth, fully-glazed appearance from an indoor perspective. There are no obvious handles; The window is motorized and features a ventilation-position.

Prototype B - Turn window opening to outside

This prototype is a sil-integrated window featuring mechatronic fittings. The window can be offset parallely into a ventilation position. From the ventilation position, the window can be opened in a 90 degree turn position. The window offers a very minimalistic appearance for use in punctuated facades.

Prototype C - Swing window

This prototype offers a swing operation, which is controlled via mechatronic components. As such it offers a wide variety of opening positions for different purposes as small-scale ventilation.

Constituents of vacuum glass products (principles)

This illustrations shows the main constituents of vacuum glass products: Glass edge seal, vacuum gap, distance pillar and bordering glass panes.

Expert audience from all over Austria at the Battery Safety Talk 2024

Around 80 experts from research, development, industry and authorities were able to exchange ideas on the topic of battery safety at the Battery Safety Talk in May 2024. The organizer was the Green Testing Lab in Hartberg, which created the opportunity to get to know different perspectives and to enter discussions with experts from different areas.

Activity centers during the workshop on electromobility and fire protection in Linz

Around 50 experts from research, industry, emergency services, and government agencies were able to exchange ideas at the "Electromobility and Fire Protection" workshop held at the Feuerwehrschule in Linz. The event was organized by IRIS – Industrial Risk and Safety Solutions, and, with funding from the Austrian Federal Ministry of the Interior, Building and Community (BMIMI) and the Austrian Research Promotion Agency (FFG), provided an opportunity to explore different perspectives and engage in discussions with experts from various fields.

Experts from all over Austria attended the national Task 49 workshop “Electromobility and Fire Protection”

During the "Electromobility and Fire Protection" workshops, renowned speakers provided valuable input from various perspectives, which was then explored in greater depth through subsequent expert discussions. The event aimed to connect professionals and interested parties to share knowledge and thereby improve safety in this area.

Host of the Battery Safety Talk and founder of Green Testing Lab Max Hofer welcomes the participants

As part of the Battery Safety Talk, well-known speakers delivered seven presentations from different perspectives on the topic of battery safety. Aim of the event was to network experts in order to share knowledge and thus increase safety in this area.

On May 15, 2024, around 80 experts from the mobility industry gathered at the Green Testing Lab in the Hartberg Eco Park to discuss the latest developments and challenges about battery safety in e-mobility. In a total of seven lectures, well-known speakers provided valuable input from different perspectives, which was deepened in following discussions with the audience.

Liebherr large-size wheel loader with hydrogen engine

Premiere of hydrogen wheel loader prototype L 566H with MAN hydrogen truck in June 2024, both vehicles powered by hydrogen engines.

Liebherr small-size wheel loader with fuel cell drive system

Presentation of wheel loader demonstrator L 507 Fuel Cell with hydrogen fuel cell at Bauma in October 2022.

Liebherr large-size excavator with hydorgen engine

Presentation of crawler excavator demonstrator R 9XXH with hydrogen engine at Bauma in October 2022.

Areas of application for highly mobile hydrogen refuelling

Areas of application for highly mobile, construction site-compatible hydrogen refuelling at locations with no or insufficient refuelling and charging infrastructure.

Design example for a highly mobile hydrogen refuelling station

Functionality of highly mobile hydrogen refuelling using the example of the MAX Mobile Refueler from Maximator: (1) The refuelling vehicle is refuelled at the public 700 bar truck filling station. (2) The already compressed hydrogen is brought to the machine by the transport vehicle. (3) Hydrogen is refuelled into the machine in a few minutes using a displacement principle with low energy input, whereby the highly mobile filling device is driven by the machine to be refuelled.

Icing on structures on the nacelle of a wind turbine

Webcam image of superstructures on the nacelle of a wind turbine with recognizable icing, which corresponds to the structure and consistency of clear ice directly on the structures and changes to hard rime as it progresses. The turbine is located at a test site of the Nergica center of applied research in eastern Canada. The webcam image is part of a dataset in the “Task 54 Icing Event Database”.

Modeled performance envelopes of rotor blade heating systems

Modeled performance envelopes as curves depending on wind speed and ambient temperature for different values of liquid water content (LWC) and surface temperature of the rotor blade. The curves were calculated with the “Task 54 Performance Envelope Model”.
