The bike aero tool offers a novel way to validate real racetrack measurements with a focus on aerodynamics. The method does not require any extra test equipment in order to obtain key findings for the evaluation of developments. It thus supports engineers and athletes at the racetrack and creates a link to established development tools.

Driving monitoring is one of the main requirements of the upcoming automated driving systems because drivers must still be alert to take over the vehicle control in case of system malfunction. Therefore, this study aimed to design an accurate, predictive and robust driver drowsiness classification system.

Das vorliegende Buch beschreibt einen möglichen Ansatz zur virtuellen Abbildung geometrischer und funktionaler Produktmerkmale eines Fahrzeugs in der frühen Phase der Automobilentwicklung. Damit lassen sich mögliche Potentiale und Risiken eines Fahrzeugentwurfs effizient sowie nachvollziehbar darstellen und bewerten.

The present thesis deals with advanced tyre modelling, in particular with the influences of tyre temperature as well as the effect of dynamic frequency dependent hardening of elastomers, including their effects on the tyre force characteristic. The focus of the work relates to computational efficient semi-physical tyre model approaches, which are widely used for ADAS and VDC operations.
