Vehicle Design

Course content

• Trends in future vehicle concepts (individual, sharing, freight transport, multimodal)
• Product specifications, user requirements (3F), legal framework (also with regard to automated connecteddriving)
• Vehicle concepts and mobility applications (design)
• Development strategies and methods for vehicle concepts under the aspects of sustainable production and usage (modularisation, variant creation, flexibility/ adaptability, adaptivity)
• Scenario technique
• systems engineering
• Development process and linking of hardware and software development
• Integration of energy storage and powertrain topologies
• Energy balance of the entire vehicle (driving resistances, drive losses, auxiliary consumers, Well2Tank / Well2Battery)
• Potentials for energy reduction (efficiencies, lightweight construction)
