At the Energy High Performance Computing and AI Conference at Rice University in Houston, experts from the energy industry, IT, and research are coming together to advance HPC and AI in the energy sector. A team from Fraunhofer ITWM is on site to present four projects: DLseis, Carme, STX, and NASE.

Workshop »Gaming, Gamification & Serious Games«: For anyone who wants to discover game-based approaches, innovative learning formats, and new forms of interaction – no prior knowledge required. Practical, interactive, with real-life examples and open discussion. Followed by questions, discussions, and networking. With Maximilian Herz (The Gaming Van) and Philipp Busch (Gamification/Serious Games).

The 5th IAVSD Symposium »Tyre Models for Vehicle Dynamics Analysis« takes place on March 25 and 26, 2026, in Kaiserslautern and will be hosted by Fraunhofer ITWM. The topics covered at this international event range from mechanical modeling, friction/adhesion, and tire-road interaction to NVH, temperature/abrasion, energy losses, and real-time applications (HIL/SIL/DIL).

For the first time, Kaiserslautern hosts an international pitch format organized by the Falling Walls Foundation, in which early-career professionals present scientific breakthroughs and innovative ideas to a jury of experts. You gain visibility and presentation skills, expand your network, and bring your research out of the ivory tower. The winner will represent Rhineland-Palatinate in the final in Berlin. 

The conference on trends and developments in the commercial vehicle industry will take place at the RPTU campus. It will feature specialist presentations and poster presentations and will be accompanied by a trade exhibition.
