300 METRE SCIENCE
From the hidden university to a Science Mile
In the summer semester, students developed a concept for how the Coudraystraße campus could be redesigned in the future to make the location more attractive for members of the university as well as for the public.
Location: Ground floor, corridor | Poster exhibition
STRAW AS A BUILDING MATERIAL
Resilient and ecological
Due to its good load-bearing and insulating properties, straw is suitable as a green alternative to conventional building materials. Current student theses and an experiment on load-bearing straw bale construction will be presented.
VTE, ground floor (hall) | demonstrations 13.00/15.00/17.00
PARFORCE
Immersive Virtual Reality Experiments
The aim of the project is to build a European, cross-university VR learning platform in civil engineering. Experience the first virtual tours and various e-learning scenarios.
VTE, ground floor (hall) | interactive exhibition 15.00-18.00
NATURAL HAZARDS AND RISKS IN STRUCTURAL ENGINEERING
Theses of the NHRE study programme
In the Master's programme »Natural Hazards and Risks in Structural Engineering«, challenging engineering tasks are solved in the planning, construction and realisation of structures under the influence of earthquakes, wind and floods, among others.
VTE, ground floor | poster exhibtion

ADDITIVE MANUFACTURE
3D Printing at MFPA
The ExAM 255 is the world's first industrial 3D printer that processes injection moulded granulate. It will be demonstrated how precisely fitting technical ceramic components are printed from granulate, which can be used almost everywhere.
MFPA Weimar, ground floor (hall) | duration: 15-20 Min.

LESS IS MORE
Sealing a landfill
To prevent emissions from escaping into water or air, it makes sense to seal a landfill. It will be explained which sealing and drainage systems are most suitable.
MFPA Weimar, ground floor (hall) | duration: 20 Min.

MAKING THE INVISIBLE VISIBLE
Hyperspectral image analysis
The human eye sees the environment multispectrally in the wavelengths of the primary colours red, green and blue. Using various materials, it will be demonstrated how hyperspectral image analysis is used to classify materials.
MFPA Weimar, ground floor (hall, room L.06) | duration: 5- 10 Min.

3D-PRINTING
... meets fibre optic sensor technology
Fibre optic sensors (FOS) use optical waveguides to investigate a variety of measurands. The possibilities opened up by the analysis method in combination with 3D printing of plastics will be illustrated.
MFPA Weimar, 2nd floor (module 3, room 27) | duration: 20-25 Min.

EXPERIMENTAL STRUCTURAL DYNAMICS
Student project
The application of methods to identify the natural vibration behaviour of structures is demonstrated on two complex model structures.
