Nach positiver Absolvierung der Lehrveranstaltung sind Studierende in der Lage:

After successful completion of the course, students are able to:

• conceptualize scientific research according to 1) problem statement, 2) expected result, 3) research methodology and 4) academic literature from scholarly journals
• perform profound literature analyses
• solve specific problems with scientific methods
• present the results in written and oral format

The aim of this year’s seminar is to investigate the measurement of Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emissions resulting from different production technologies, i.e.

• Injection Molding Manufacturing vs.

• Additive Manufacturing/3D-Printing

by developing and applying a Resource Consumption Driven (RCD) Activity Based Emission Measurement model based upon GHG production coefficients with respect to emission scopes 1, 2 & 3 from the Greenhouse Protocol (see reference) and by applying the model to calculate the differences in the GHG emissions of the two production technologies in the context of 3D printer manufacturing (e.g. at Prusa3D.com)
