dynamic research institutions in the country. TUD has established the Research Training Group
"AirMetro - Technological & Operational Integration of Highly Automated Air Transport in Urban
Areas" (RTG 2947), funded by the German Research Foundation (DFG). This interdisciplinary group,
involving five faculties and the German Aerospace Centre (DLR), will conduct research on 11 research
the technical and social challenges of Advanced Air Mobility, considering ecological, economic,
technological, and sociological factors. The RTG's structured doctoral program aims to train young
researchers in highly automated, networked mobility, featuring international collaboration with
mentors from the USA, Asia, and Europe. TUD and the RTG embodies a university culture that is

Job ID: RTG2947-T6***
Title: Development of Robust Motion trajectories under Consideration of Model and Data

Uncertainty

Investigators: Prof. Michael Kaliske, Chair of the Institute for Structural Analysis and co-supervised
by at least one additional professor plus an international tutor of the RTG***

Requirements: very good university degree as Master of Science (M.Sc.) or Diplom-Ingenieur (Dipl.
Ing.) in civil engineering or mechanical engineering (or comparable) with deep
knowledge in uncertainty quantification, structural analysis, advanced mathematics,
modelling and simulation.

**Description of the PhD topic**:Small, highly automated aircrafts over populated areas rely on robust
motion trajectories, considering uncertain input data. Sensor precision, fusion of multiple data
sources and absence data due to difficult environmental conditions or technical defects require the
modelling of vehicle states beyond deterministic models. The objective of this PhD thesis is to develop
motion trajectories. The project aims to overcome drawbacks of probabilistic models by means of
