Laboratory for Model Dynamics
In the Laboratory for Model Dynamics, experimental problems in
- structural dynamics as well as in
- structural and room acoustics
are studied in close cooperation with the TVFA of the University of Innsbruck. In addition to scientific investigations, the Unit of Applied Mechanics also deals with problems in these fields in engineering practice. The available mobile measurement equipment is suitable for field applications on real buildings.
