Current Topics for Theses

Below you will find a selection of topics that are currently offered for a bachelor and master thesis at the IKL. You are also welcome to contact us with your own topics.

If you are interested in writing your thesis at the IKL, please contact Christoph Kralovec to develop your individual task.

  • Development of a load monitoring system based on piezoelectric elements for lightweight structures (experiment, data analysis, design of measurent devices)
  • Physics-informed evaluation of electromechanical impedance measurements for damage evaluation of lightweight structures (FE method, experiment, data analysis by machine learning)
  • Mode-based evaluation of acoustic emission measurements for damage evaluation of lightweight structures (FE method, experiment, data analysis)
  • Design and construction of demonstrators for stability problems in lightweight construction for use in teaching (FE method, experiment, handcraft)

All topics are highly integrated in the institute's research or teaching.
