Student projects
The following projects and calls for proposals are current research topics of the staff of the Stuttgart Research Center for Reliability Engineering at the IMA. If you are interested or if you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact the mentioned contact persons via the contact data given in each case. For some projects, you may also contact us via C@mpus at the bottom of the page. If you would like to propose a topic on your own initiative beyond the specific calls for proposals, please contact the department head (see contact information below) or a supervisor whose area of expertise matches your topic.
External student projects
The Stuttgart Research Center for Reliability Engineering offers opportunities for students to conduct research projects in collaboration with industry partners and non-university research institutions. For specific topic suggestions, please contact the department head (see contact information below).
Cooperation with CERN
Among others, we maintain close technical collaboration with CERN (European Organization for Nuclear Research), which operates the world’s largest particle accelerator, the LHC (Large Hadron Collider). As part of our cooperation agreement, students in Reliability Engineering can complete internships at CERN or write their theses on site. The specific topics cover a broad spectrum of reliability activities related to particle accelerators. These include, for example, the application of risk management methods in the development of the FCC (Future Hadron Collider) or radiation detection and monitoring. If you are interested or have further questions, please contact the department management (see contact information below).

Problem Statement:
In sheet metal shearing, replacing or regrinding worn cutting elements involves considerable setup and maintenance effort.
Inspired by the principle of indexable inserts, replaceable or reversible cutting inserts could enable faster maintenance and more efficient use of cutting materials.
Objectives:
Development and detailed design of suitable concepts for replaceable or reversible cutting inserts.
Evaluation and optimization of the concepts using FE simulations and structural substitute models.
