The Acoustics Working Group deals with issues relating to structure-borne noise and building and room acoustics. Its research focuses on the following questions: How do sound and vibrations propagate in buildings? How can sound propagation be simulated and calculated? How can structure-borne noise sources (e.g. heat exchangers) be characterised using measurement techniques? Can sound waves be made visible? How can the acoustic quality of a room be optimised, and can room air temperature be measured using sound? These and other questions are addressed and researched by the Acoustics Working Group in research projects, courses and student theses.

The Energy Working Group (AG Energie) focuses on simulating energy demand at the level of urban neighborhoods as a basis for the sustainable transformation of the building stock. This requires reliable building stock data, for the determination of which the Chair develops various methods, such as estimating U-values using thermography or artificial neural networks.

The Indoor Climate working Group (AG Raumklima) aims to create an indoor climate that maintains and promotes the health and thermal comfort of building occupants. Using empirical studies and numerical simulations, the group investigates the effects of indoor climate on the human body and its microclimate, as well as, conversely, the influences of humans on indoor climate. Through the development of individualized systems to enhance personal well-being, the group explores innovative solution approaches.

The Chair of Building Physics oversees the postgraduate Master's program in Building Physics and Energy-Efficient Building Optimization, which is designed for architects, civil engineers, and related professions. The program can be studied very flexibly on a part-time basis and conveys the building physics knowledge necessary for the planning and renovation of buildings."
