As part of a collaboration between IKAT and the Institute for Life and Earth Sciences at Heriot Watt University, Mrs. Nettlenbusch of the Product Development Department is conducting a research visit on Transition Engineering. The aim of the trip to Scotland is to gain a better understanding of Susan Krumdieck’s approach to Transition Engineering as a means of sustainable product development. This is being done through a case study examining whether orthoses can be made more sustainable. Additionally, the stay at the Scottish Orkney Research & Innovation Campus is aimed at preparing a workshop that Professor Krumdieck will conduct at TU Chemnitz in early June. The central focus of the workshop will be the case study developed during the four-week stay.
