The project is funded by the BMFTR and managed by the project administrator VDI/VDE-IT. Preparations for VLAME were supported by TU Braunschweig's “Postdoc Career Grant.” Through TU Braunschweig's “Postdoc International Mobility Grant” and the SE²A Cluster of Excellence, the research also links to international projects, such as the “JETCALF” project by the University of British Columbia (UBC) in cooperation with Boeing, the National Research Council Canada (NRC), and IFAS.
