Virtual Therapy Strengthens Social Skills in Autism
Researchers at TU Graz are using virtual reality and large language models to support people with autism spectrum disorder in training social skills. The system is intended to make treatment options more widely accessible.
New CD Laboratory at TU Graz to research safe, lightweight rail vehicles
The new Christian Doppler (CD) Laboratory for Structural Integrity in Rail Vehicle Design aims to boost energy efficiency and cut life cycle costs in production and operations.
Reducing Disruptions in the Railway Network
Insulated joint systems are crucial for safe railway operation, but are susceptible to faults. The newly developed insulated joint is intended to extend service life and reduce maintenance and repair costs.
New AI Method Revolutionises the Design of Enzymes
Researchers at TU Graz and the University of Graz can use the technology to construct artificial biocatalysts. These new enzymes are significantly faster, more stable and more versatile than previous artificial biocatalysts.
Coffee as a Staining Agent Substitute in Electron Microscopy
Researchers at TU Graz have proven that espresso is a favourable alternative to the highly toxic and radioactive uranyl acetate in the analysis of biological samples.
Central Role of Human Decision-Making
Fairness in AI: Study Shows Central Role of Human Decision-Making. In addition to helping in a practical way, recommendations based on AI should above all be fair. A new study by researchers at TU Graz, Uni Graz and the Know Center shows how this can be achieved.
Water molecules in motion: Surprising dynamics on 2D materials
Instead of jumping, water molecules walk: Graz University of Technology and the University of Surrey show how water moves in surprisingly different ways on ultra-thin materials.
Green Hydrogen without Forever Chemicals and Iridium
In the EU project SUPREME, an international research team with the participation of TU Graz is developing an electrolyser to produce green hydrogen more sustainably and efficiently.
Lake Wörthersee under Pressure: Innovative System Measures the State of the Ecosystem
The new holistic monitoring system developed under the leadership of TU Graz measures boat waves with millimetre precision using satellite navigation data and sensors on buoys and for the first time allows investigations into the extent to which boat traffic, weather and other factors influence the ecosystem of lakes.
TU Graz and Magna Open the Advanced Driving Simulation Center
At Campus Inffeldgasse, one of the most powerful driving simulators in the world now enables cutting-edge research in the fields of driving dynamics and comfort as well as electromobility and automated driving.
Forestry is Becoming Digital and Automated
TU Graz is launching the COMET project AutoForst for digitalisation and automation of the forestry value chain. The research project has a budget of 6 million euros and is being implemented in collaboration with three other universities and more than 20 industrial partners.
Aviation Fuel Production from Tomato Residues: TU Graz Coordinates Visionary EU project
Residual biomass from tomato production is turned into climate-friendly aviation fuel. The aim of the EU ToFuel project is to develop a waste-free and CO2-neutral biorefinery concept that produces sustainable and economically competitive aviation fuel.
Tyre and Road Abrasion as the Biggest Source of Particulate Emissions in Road Traffic
Study by TU Graz shows that exhaust particles account for less than ten per cent of fine dust emissions from cars and trucks. Compliance with new air quality limits to take effect in 2030 will be nevertheless difficult to achieve.
More Efficient Aircraft Engines: TU Graz Reveals Optimisation Potential
Using an AI-supported model developed in-house, an interdisciplinary team at TU Graz has sought new methods to enhance the efficiency of aircraft engines.
