Christian Doppler Laboratories
The Christian Doppler Laboratories are technical-scientific research institutes that were founded at Austrian university institutes from the year 2000. They are named after the Austrian scientist Christian Doppler (1803-1853). The association is based in Vienna .
Structure of the laboratories
aims
The laboratories serve three purposes:
- application-oriented basic research ,
- cooperation between universities and companies
- as well as general technology transfer .
The model is intended to build a bridge between basic research and industrial application .
Cooperation between university institutes and companies
Most of these laboratories are attached as departments to existing university institutes. In this way, the existing scientific infrastructure can be used optimally. The research contracts come from partners in industry. The laboratories conduct research on a subject of application-oriented basic research on behalf of and with the support of the partners.
Both sides should benefit from this model: The companies will have access to the research capacity at the university institute. In return, they receive support and feedback from the industrial partner who is interested in practice-oriented research. The model is financially and organizationally secure for both sides over a longer period of time and thus facilitates cooperation.
financing
Half of the costs of a Christian Doppler laboratory are borne by the public purse and half of the industrial partners. For companies, this means that every euro invested is doubled by the state. The public sector, on the other hand, can ensure that the university institutes involved work on basic research that is relevant to practice.
The following institutions have so far been able to gain state support:
- Federal Ministry for Transport, Innovation and Technology
- Federal Ministry of Economics and Labor
- National Foundation for Research, Technology & Development
- National Bank of Austria
In 2005 the budget for the laboratories at that time was 12.508 million euros.
Scientific and technical work areas of the CD Laboratories
The research and development activities at these laboratories range from physics , electrical engineering and computer science to geometric applications ( satellite geodesy , building surveying) and traffic engineering to biology and medicine .
In detail, the laboratories mentioned relate u. a. the following subject groups (alphabetically):
- Construction (material and building material technology)
- Chemistry and plastics chemistry , adsorption technology, electrolytes , pulp industry
- Financial math
- Electronics / electrical engineering and computer science , non-linear signal processing , embedded processors
- Energy technology (chemical and fuel cells )
- Geodesy , long distance and coupling - Navigation
- Materials science and building materials, material design , metal and woodworking , molecular recognition materials (MRMs)
- Medicine , Biomedicine and Biology
- biotechnology
- Metallurgy (optimization of steel production , continuous casting and non-ferrous metals )
- Traffic and vehicle technology : z. B. automotive measurement technology , engine and vehicle acoustics , or thermodynamics of internal combustion engines.
