Research professorship for Prof Peter Starke
Universities of Applied Sciences (UAS) are valued for the practical training they offer their students. What is less publicised is that successful research is also carried out there. In addition to teaching, many professors are also involved in research - often in cooperation with external partners fro
Presentations at the Materials Testing Conference
Dear colleagues, the WWHK is represented with 4 presentations at this year's Materials Testing Conference in Berlin. I am looking forward to many interesting talks and discussions.

New team member at WWHK
Mr. Srinivasa Raghavan Raghuraman will join the WWHK team as an assistant in the future. After his successful master's degree, he will work on the project "Evaluation of fracture surfaces with regard to damage development of cyclically loaded specimens made of C22E and 20MnCrS5" in the next 6 months.
New research project at WWHK
On October 1, 2020, the WWHK started the second phase of the joint project as a new project partner: Microstructure-based service life calculation "MibaLeb II".
The joint project is concerned with the development of a method for assessing the remaining service life of metallic nuclear power plant components that have
New research project "Tissue engineering of cells in complex hydrogels using three-dimensional electrical and magnetic stimulation"
In April 2020, the interdisciplinary joint project "TelMa" will start, in which a total of 9 working groups of the University of Applied Sciences Kaiserslautern will work together to develop new possibilities for rege
New project at WWHK in the field of VHCF fatigue
From December 2022, the research project entitled "Evaluation of the frequency influence on the fatigue behaviour of unalloyed steels", funded by the Budget for Research and Innovation, will start at WWHK.
The aim of the project is to extend short-term methods for determining fatigue data to the V
New member of the department management at WWHK
On 1 February 2024, Janina Koziol took over as head of the "Analytics and Microscopy" group at the Department of Materials Science and Materials Testing at Kaiserslautern University of Applied Sciences. Janina has been an important part of the WWHK team since October 2022 and has been in charge of th
New EKusaP research project funded by the BMWi
At the WWHK a new research project "Development of a short-term procedure for the evaluation of damage-relevant parameters of ferritic materials and components used in nuclear technology" will start on 01.04.2021, which is funded by the BMWi. The project management agency is the Gesellschaft für Anlag
New DFG-funded research project at WWHK
In September, a new DFG-funded joint research project will start at the WWHK in cooperation with the IEHK of RWTH Aachen University. The project focuses on the re-use potential of already used metallic components and structures.
The funding amounts to 320 t€ with a duration of 36 months. In addition to fun
