At the 21st Global Conference on Sustainable Manufacturing in Bologna, Katharina Rohde from the DMB presented research findings from the Digi4Circular project on barriers to recycling. The focus was on the question of which design principles have the greatest influence on technical recycling. In particular, the choice of materials, the avoidance of glued structures and the minimisation of coatings proved to be key factors.
Networking is an elementary component of interdisciplinary and cross-location research projects. That's why we and our colleagues from the LDM department took the opportunity to network with researchers from the other three locations Annaberg-Buchholz, Hamburg and Karlsruhe at the "Hot Topic Seminar" of the German Centre for Future Mobility (DZM) in Minden.
In addition to a session to collect ideas for further developments and joint…
At the three-day event "FDM@Campus", researchers and infrastructure experts from Germany met to discuss current developments in research data management (RDM).
There we had the opportunity to organise a workshop on the topic of "Structured RDM platforms: News solutions and challenges in information infrastructure projects".participants exchanged views on existing tools, in-house developments from ongoing projects and possible application…
We recently enriched our courses on emergency response, fire protection and information systems with a visit to 112Rescue in Dortmund. At the trade fair, students were able to find out about the latest innovations in the field of public safety and work hands-on with technologies such as robotics and virtual reality. The exchange with exhibitors and experts provided valuable insights into the future of these important areas of application.The…

On 5 June, the Köckerling agricultural machinery factory opened its doors for a factory tour for our Chair of Data Management in Mechanical Engineering.
Here we took the opportunity to take a look behind the scenes of the ultra-modern production of agricultural machinery for soil cultivation, seed sowing and grassland maintenance.
During a guided tour of the production halls, we were given fascinating insights into the manufacturing process,…
On a sunny Friday in the summer semester, students from our "Hazard prevention and emergency management" and "Information management for public safety and security" lectures visited the Dortmund fire brigade. After a warm welcome and an introduction to the Dortmund Fire Brigade, civil protection and their own preparedness for disasters, the students were able to visit the staff room and control centre of the Dortmund Fire Brigade.

Hello everyone,
I'm Finn and I'm very happy to be part of the DMB team as a research assistant.
Already during my mechanical engineering studies with a focus on engineering informatics and my work as a research assistant at Paderborn University, I was fascinated by the connection between data management, machine learning and product development.
During the course of my studies, I worked intensively on data-based approaches in technical…
From 17 to 19 November, Andreas Schultz presented our work on "Knowledge Management in Civil Protection at the Example of Fire Brigades" with a poster at the 16th International Joint Conference on Knowledge Discovery, Knowledge Engineering and Knowledge Management in Porto, Portugal. Our literature research shows that knowledge management in civil security is not yet a hot topic, but offers a lot of potential.
With many presentations on…
Am 4. Dezember 2024 wurde in Paderborn ein neues, von Horizon Europe finanziertes Projekt Digi4Circular gestartet.
