We are a team of researchers, scientists and academics, dedicated to the mission of harnessing the principles of thermodynamics and transforming engineering innovation into practical, industry-based solutions. We aim to advance research and education on clean transport by combining our simulation and testing expertise for all means of transport on the ground or in the water.
From our lab, for the world
From our lab, for the world
Through the combination of state-of-the-art equipment, in-house and commercial simulation software, and the talent of our scientists, we conduct cutting-edge research in the areas of automotive, vessel and environmental engineering. We specialize in a diverse range of areas including thermodynamics, internal combustion engines, electrochemistry, pollution control technology, greenhouse gas reduction technologies in transport, optoacoustic spectroscopy, mass transfer phenomena, thermal processing and industrial refrigeration.

TESTING AND MODELING
We bring innovative engineering concepts to life.
TESTING AND MODELING
We bring innovative engineering concepts to life.
Simulation, testing, and data analysis are important assets to our toolbox to support a plethora of services. Our expertise expands from fuel, engine, powertrain and exhaust testing, to aftertreatment solutions, software simulations, research and legislative consultancy and RDE. We also employ modeling tools to simulate complete exhaust lines with emphasis on emission control.
Making good use of our academic and scientific know-how, we empower industries with consultancy and training solutions on optimal environmental and operational vehicle performance.
Research trusted worldwide
