Our aim
All of the institute’s experiments and studies – even those dealing with detailed technical problems – are conducted to result in an improved description of the researched overall system.
The four pillars of research
Research at the ILA covers the areas of life cycle analysis, condition monitoring, structural mechanics, and aeronautical propulsion systems of the future.
Based on overall system competency the Institute of Aircraft Propulsion Systems develops client-oriented solutions for the engine and turbo-machinery industry. A professorship – sponsored by MTU Aero Engines – focuses on the research area structural mechanics.
