The University of the Bundeswehr Munich has appointed Professor Dr. Martin Sauer as an honorary professor in the field of "High Dynamics".

Green hydrogen is a key area of opportunity in the energy transition. However, the use of pipelines to transport this energy source is associated with a degree of risk. Research scientists at the Fraunhofer Institute for High-Speed Dynamics, Ernst-Mach-Institut, EMI, are developing a hydraulic simulation tool to assist with the planning of a resilient hydrogen infrastructure designed to safeguard energy supply.

With the construction of the KTC (High-Speed Dynamic Technologies Center), the institute is further expanding its research in Freiburg.

Researchers at the Fraunhofer Institute for High-Speed Dynamics (Ernst-Mach-Institut, EMI) have developed a tool that allows companies and operators of critical infrastructures to quickly evaluate their need for action. This tool facilitates the efficient identification of security risks and the implementation of necessary measures.

Germany stands at a turning point: How resilient is the country against the crises of the future? An assessment of the previous implementation by the National Resilience Platform reveals where Germany has become stronger and where gaps remain. The analysis, which also involved experts from the Fraunhofer EMI, shows: Resilience requires more than good intentions. It demands structural strength, clear priorities, and decisive action.

The automotive supplier Brose is planning to enter the space and satellite sector. In October, the family-owened company formed strategic partnerships with Fraunhofer-Institute for High-Speed-Dynamics EMI, Fraunhofer Institute for Silicate Research ISC and the BERLIN SPACE Consortium (BERLIN SPACE).

After a year in orbit, the research satellite ERNST has achieved a significant milestone: The beer crate-sized satellite provides images of rockets during launch. It has gathered crucial data for early missile warning systems.

Fraunhofer Institute for High-Speed Dynamics EMI and the German-French Research Institute Saint-Louis (ISL) are intensifying their collaboration in security and defense research.
