The development and testing of textile-based green façades is planned as part of a new research project. In preparation for the tests, two master's theses including the associated internship will be used to develop the test setup and the execution of the tests will be developed.

a) Topic 1: In this work, the structural design for the textile green façade is to be developed, including a proposal for installation on a concrete wall and connection to the ground. The result is to be presented as a CAD 3D drawing and a list of materials is to be drawn up. At least 3 variants for attaching the green façades are to be designed and should be designed and evaluated.

b) Topic 2: In this project, the irrigation system for the textile green façade is to be developed. This includes the scenario analysis for the water demand under different climatic conditions, the development of a water storage concept for the water storage concept for the calculated worst-case scenario, a technical irrigation unit to irrigate the green façade and an the green façade and an IoT-based irrigation control system incorporating weather data.

Topic 1 and 2 are to be worked on together. The Master's students entrusted with the task must discuss with each other and create a common knowledge base so that the results of both topics are harmonised. are harmonised.

Students who are interested in working on the topics offered can send their application to martina.monien-zeh.2@hof-university.de send. The application, meaningful documents must be submitted from which it must be clearly recognisable that sufficient interests and sufficient interest and expertise in the desired topic. In addition, a cover letter must clearly explain why the applicant considers him/herself suitable for the selected topic.
