Outline The Fraunhofer Institute for High Speed Dynamics, Ernst Mach Institute (EMI) conducts research into physical high speed processes through experiments and simulations , such as crashes, explosions, or collisions Based on this research, the institute develops safety and resilience concepts. The institute's research areas include building protection, safety in urban systems, resilience of infrastructure networks safe mobility, aircraft safety, satellite development, and research for the German Armed Forces Of specific relevance for the objectives of GADRI is the Department for Risk Management and Protective Structures at Fraunhofer EMI with a long track record of applied research on risk mitigation and hazard assessment related to high speed dynamic physical phenomena.
Long track record of successful research projects conducted around civil protection, disaster control, and risk identification and prevention such as the EU projects VITRUV , BESECURE, and INACHUS and ma ny other. Inhouse d evelopment of many proper simulation tools, i.a. CaESAR (Cascading Effect Simulation in Areas for increasing Resilience) and VITRUV Vulnerability Identification Tools for Resilience Enhancements of Urban Environments.
