Areas of Research

Mainly in five main areas of research the scientists work. For nearly each experimental field, a corresponding computer simulation field exist.

FE-Calculation

CAE-Methods

Different kinds of CAE-methods are used in research projects. Beside the applications of the methods, the identification of model parameters play an important role.

Crash model

Crash

Different experimental and simulation methods are used for investigations of the crash behaviour of cars and their components.

Forklift

Human-Machine Interaction

Different kinds of driving simulators are used for investigations of interactions between humans and vehicles.

Electric Vehicle on a Chassis Dynamometer

Alternative Powertrains

In experimental and simulation-based research alternative powertrains are investigated, especially with respect to greenhouse gas emissions.

Tyre on

Dynamics of Tires and Vehicles

Investigations of whole vehicles and tires, both, experimental and simulation-based.
