A center for fundamental research into the ageing of battery materials and power electronic systems is currently being established at RWTH Aachen University. The “Center for Ageing, Reliability and Lifetime Prediction of Electrochemical and Power Electronic Systems“, CARL for short, is an interdisciplinary research facility where staff from ten core professorships and around 20 other chairs and institutes at RWTH Aachen and Forschungszentrum Jülich can conduct groundbreaking research. These include scientists from the disciplines of chemistry, physics, mathematics, computer science, materials science, mechanical and electrical engineering. The question of service life is essential when considering economic viability. For instance, this is important for car manufacturers, depreciation periods, warranties and to be able to assess reliability as part of functional safety.
Is internship available in this sector?
Thank you for your comment! Generally speaking, there should be internships available in this sector. If you want to get specific information on battery research and electronic systems, I would suggest reaching out to the Institute for Power Electronics and Electrical Drives (https://www.isea.rwth-aachen.de/cms/~ojnv/ISEA/?lidx=1).
