Software development

Software development at LCM is organised into two levels: on one level, software is developed as an integral part of mechatronic systems in terms of a real-time system or for human-machine interaction. On another level, LCM’s own simulation software helps to overcome...

Optimization of Hybrid Drives for Public Transport

Optimization of Hybrid Drives for Public Transport

Hybrid Drives already play an important role in individual transport systems, and getting increasingly important with public transport systems as well. A peculiarity of public transportation is the repetition of the routes. This poses the question if the demand on the...

Energy and Cost Efficient Valve Testing Device

Energy and Cost Efficient Valve Testing Device

To derive meaningful results in durability testing of hydraulic valves, it is crucial to perform such tests under realistic conditions. The phenomenon with the highest effect on valve durability is the so called flow force, which arises at high flow rates and high...
