With the publication of the textbook “Modellreduktion. Eine systemtheoretisch orientierte Einführung” in the Springer Studium Mathematik (Master) series, the first textbook in the history of the Max Planck Institute for Dynamics of Complex Technical Systems was released in 2024. The focus of the book is on systems theoretical methods, the development of which forms the essential core of the MPI's engineering research work and is applied here in the field of model reduction of dynamic systems.

Many breakthroughs are needed in the discovery of new materials, especially for sustainable economic development based on renewable energy and carbon-neutral industrial circular processes. The BiGmax research network has investigated how data-driven approaches can be used for such breakthroughs and points out future paths in a roadmap.
