A large number of research and development projects are currently in progress at the TUM Department of Architecture. The range of topics extends from sustainable fuel engines and autonomous vehicle systems to charging infrastructure design and air shuttles. A selection of current research highlights:
UNLOCK15 is an alliance between research institutions, private enterprises, and public administrations aimed at empowering citizens and local authorities to overcome barriers to sustainable urban…
nclusiveSpaces focuses on the inclusive design, monitoring, and evaluation of urban spaces. The project introduces co-design accessibility concepts, engaging people with disabilities and older adults…
The project "Car-reduced neighborhoods for a livable city" deals with the question of how urban mobility must be designed in the neighborhood in order to be able to counter the climate emergency or social equality.
COLTOC (Collaborative Traffic Optimization and Control) is an optimization approach that explicitly targets delays caused by irregular traffic phenomena.
The goal of the ComfficientShare project is to develop, implement and test shared charging and electrified car sharing solutions at the neighborhood level.
