About RITMO

RITMO: Interdisciplinary research for sustainable mobility and logistics

Interdisciplinary cooperation

Through their holistic collaboration, researchers from all faculties at Hochschule RheinMain are helping to optimize the interplay between supply and demand on the transport market, promote the implementation of suitable infrastructures and drive forward the creation of barrier-free, demand-oriented mobility options. Logistical processes are also scientifically examined in order to achieve the goal of a resource-efficient and resource-conserving circular economy.

Our research activities focus on three fields of action:

Traffic

Systemic consideration and development of the market between transport demand and transport supply. Within the field of action, the planning, implementation and operation of infrastructures and services for broad and group-based avoidance, modal shift and compatible handling of transport demand are considered.

Traffic
Logistics

Holistic consideration, analysis and optimization of goods, information and financial flows. Within the field of action, procurement, production, distribution and logistical contributions to a resource-efficient and resource-conserving circular economy are examined in more detail.

Logistics
Mobility

Creating, promoting and ensuring access to barrier-free and needs-oriented mobility options. Within the field of action, the focus is on the needs of potentially mobile people, corresponding behavioral drivers and steering mechanisms for satisfying these needs.

Mobility
Our partners

With its research results, RITMO makes a sustainable scientific contribution to the transformation of the economy and society, working together with companies and organizations, politicians, funding bodies and civil society.
