​The increasing trend towards electric cars leads to several challenges for the automobile industry, research institutes and politics as well as for the society. Research and serial development move closer together to meet automotive standards with new components like traction batteries integrated into hybrid and electrical drivetrains. Furthermore, the influence of e-mobility on the daily mobility behavior, the effects on the automotive supply chain and the impact on industrial production have to be taken into account. According to these complex aspects it is crucial to not only acquire specific knowledge in the particular fields but also to consider their functional interaction. Therefore, it seems essential to merge competence from science, economy and politics. This year, the annual „Conference on Future Automotive Technology" as the follow-up of the „2. Automobiltechnisches Kolloquium München" focuses on the economical realization of widespread automotive electromobility.

Automotive Embedded Systeme Effizientes Framework – Vom Design zur Implementierung


Free Download Automotive Embedded Systeme: Effizientes Framework – Vom Design zur Implementierung By Joachim Wietzke, Manh Tien Tran (auth.)
2005 | 445 Pages | ISBN: 3540243399 | PDF | 2 MB
Die Entwicklung hochkomplexer automotiver Infotainmentsysteme bestehend aus einer Headunit mit Bedienelementen, dem Gateway als Brücke zwischen Kfz-Bus und CAN und weiteren Komponenten wie Audio- und Videoelementen, Kommunikationseinheiten, Navigationssystemen und Sensorik erfordert solides Domänenwissen und umfassendes Know-how im Software-Engineering. Das vorliegende Buch gibt eine fundierte Darstellung der softwareseitigen Implementierung dieser Komponenten innerhalb eines Frameworks, das die Designziele, Architekturmerkmale und Kommunikationsprozesse definiert.Im ersten Teil des Buches werden wichtige Grundlagen zu Eingebetteten Systemen und den für diese Systeme charakteristischen Methoden des Software-Engineerings vermittelt. Insbesondere werden dabei die Themen Speichermanagement und Systemperformance sowie grundlegende Mechanismen von Betriebssystemen betrachtet.Im zweiten Teil wird eine konkrete, objektorientierte Implementierung eines Frameworks dargestellt, und diese Implementierung zeigt die Umsetzung besonders effizienter Sychronisations- und Kommunikationsprozesse innerhalb einer kompakten und hochperformanten Systemarchitektur.

The automobile industry and varnish manufacturers are expending considerable amounts of money to produce particularly appealing surfaces. The main task of a lacquer is protection against corrosion, weathering and chemical and mechanical influences, as well as obtaining the appealing surface. Different manufacturers specialize exclusively in automobile lacquers. This book deals with the composition and the production of the different components and their physical characteristics as well as their application technology characteristics. Therefore both the application behavior, the task of protection, and the corresponding appearance are covered in detail.

Ingenious A True Story of Invention, Automotive Daring, and the Race to Revive America


Free Download Ingenious: A True Story of Invention, Automotive Daring, and the Race to Revive America by Jason Fagone, Adam Verner, Tantor Audio

In 2007, the X Prize Foundation announced that it would give $10 million to anyone who could build a safe, mass-producible car that could travel one hundred miles on the energy equivalent of a gallon of gas. The challenge attracted more than one hundred teams from all over the world, including dozens of amateurs. Many designed their cars entirely from scratch, rejecting decades of thinking about what a car should look like.
Jason Fagone follows four of those teams from the build stage to the final race and beyond – into a world in which destiny hangs on a low drag coefficient and a lug nut can be a beautiful talisman. The result is a gripping story of crazy collaboration, absurd risks, colossal hopes, and poignant losses. In an old pole barn in central Illinois, childhood sweethearts hack together an electric-powered dreamboat, using scavenged parts, forging their own steel, and burning through their life savings. In Virginia, an impassioned entrepreneur and his hand-picked squad of speed freaks pool their imaginations and build a car so light that you can push it across the floor with your thumb. In West Philly, a group of disaffected high school students come into their own as they create a hybrid car with the engine of a Harley motorcycle. And in Southern California, the early favorite – a start-up backed by millions in venture capital-designs a car that looks like an alien egg.
Ingenious is a joyride. Fagone takes us into the garages and the minds of the inventors, capturing the fractious yet beautiful process of engineering a bespoke machine. Suspenseful and bighearted, this is the story of ordinary people risking failure, economic ruin, and ridicule to create something vital that Detroit had never pulled off. As the Illinois team wrote in chalk on the wall of their barn, "SOMEBODY HAS TO DO SOMETHING. THAT SOMEBODY IS US."
