Institute

Intermodal transport systems design, with focus on railway and public transport as well as process control of transport systems comprise the essential research areas of the IEV. Our teaching and research encompass an integrated design of transport systems from the determination of concrete transport requirements to the technical and structural realization of transport systems, along with the examination of the fulfillment of the previously-defined tasks related to traffic management. Our activities are customer oriented, with a focus on cost-effectiveness and environmental friendliness. Considerable importance is given to the design of intermodal transport systems, with particular attention paid to the interfaces between the various modes of transport.
