In many areas of the manufacturing and services sector problems arise which are unsuitable to be solved with classic methods of mathematics and informatics. Representative for these problems are the challenges of the participating companies Voestalpine, Rosenbauer, Carvatech and the AKh Linz. On the one hand, manufacturing processes are to be optimized by intelligent algorithms and on the other hand, knowledge is to be gained through the identification of technical and medical structures and correlations.
The voestalpine Stahl GmbH with its highly reputated research and development departements is one of the most innovative steel producers worldwide. Together with voestalpine we have found interesting questions in the topic of structure identification applied on modeling tasks in the area of ironmaking and rolling. The voestalpine Stahl GmbH will validate the quality of the produced models in the course of real world manufacturing scenarios. www.voestalpine.com
ROSENBAUER INTERNATIONAL is one of the three largest company producing fire-fighting vehicles worldwide. As the sole full-range supplier in their field they offer a broad series of products from municipal fire engines, aerial ladders as well as state-of-the-art airport and industry fire-fighting vehicles and fire fighters accessories and equipment. Together with Rosenbauer we defined interesting questions in the field of classical production planning optimization and simulation-based optimization in logistic planning and factory layouting as well as projects in the field of structure identification. www.rosenbauer.com
Over the last 50 years carvatech Karosserie & Kabinenbau GmbH has developed from a small bodybuilder to a successful international operating supplier of cable car cabins as well as a body shop for special vehicles. Together with carvatech we found interesting questions in the field of production planning optimization as well as factory layouting. www.carvatech.com
The AKh Linz is one of the most important hospitals in Upper Austria offering a broad range of health care services. It focuses on providing excellent medical services in the treatment of cardiovascular diseases and therapy of elderly people. Together with the AKh Linz we have found interesting questions regarding the application of data-based modeling approaches. www.linz.at/akh
