The second FIP Academy online seminar will take place on 3 March, at 2 pm. Researchers and PhD students can look forward to presentations by Dieter Weise and Christian Teicht, who represent two of the 76 institutes under the umbrella of the elite applied research organisation, Fraunhofer-Gesellschaft.

Dieter Weise from the Fraunhofer Institute for Machine Tools and Forming Technology (Fraunhofer IWU) has been cooperating with VSB-TUO for a long time. A graduate of mechanical engineering at Chemnitz University of Technology, he will be speaking on the topic of “Incremental sheet metal forming - strategy for small quantities”. This technology has experienced dynamic development in recent years and is enjoying increased attention from industry.

The second speaker will be Christian Teicht from the Fraunhofer Institute for Chemical Technology (Fraunhofer ICT).  He will focus on concepts, design and applications of thermochemical heat storage and conversion systems. Christian Teicht holds a master's degree in chemical engineering from the Mannheim University of Applied Sciences with a specialisation in heat and mass transfer and bulk solids technologies. He is currently working on his PhD thesis in the field of adsorption heat transformation.

Thermochemical heat storage and heat transformation systems can be used for loss-free long-term storage of heat or to provide cold from heat. The thermochemical heat storage systems investigated at Fraunhofer ICT are based on physisorption,” Teicht outlined the direction of his presentation.

The seminar will be held via MS Teams, the language of delivery is English. Those interested can register here.

The FIP Academy is one of the activities of the Fraunhofer Innovation Platform for Applied Artificial Intelligence for Materials & Manufacturing at VSB - Technical University of Ostrava. Participants have the opportunity to learn about research in the institutions that are part of the platform. Another goal is to look for opportunities for future scientific cooperation. Fraunhofer-Gesellschaft, based in Germany, is the world's leading applied research organisation. It prioritises key future-relevant technologies, commercialises its findings in business and industry, and thus plays a major role in the innovation process. Founded in 1949, Fraunhofer-Gesellschaft currently operates 76 institutes and research units throughout Germany and has more than 30,000 employees, mostly scientists and engineers.
