In diesem Grundlagenwerk werden Systeme, die Fahrzeugführung unterstützen oder ganz übernehmen in Aufbau und Funktion ausführlich erklärt. Darüber hinaus enthält es eine Übersicht der Rahmenbedingungen für die Entwicklung solcher Systeme sowie Erläuterungen der angewandten Entwicklungs- und Testwerkzeuge. Die Beschreibung umfasst die heute bekannten Assistenzsysteme einschließlich des Ausblicks auf deren zukünftigen Entwicklungen. Speziell wird den vielfältigen Aspekten der Automatisierung...

This book summarizes research being pursued within the Research Unit FOR 2089, funded by the German Research Foundation (DFG), the goal of which is to develop the scientific base for a paradigm shift towards dimensioning, structural realization and maintenance of pavements, and prepare road infrastructure for future requirements. It provides a coupled thermo-mechanical model for a holistic physical analysis of the pavement-tire-vehicle system: based on this model, pavement structures and m...

This open access book explains in detail systems and technologies for assisted and automated driving. It also provides an overview of the limitations of such systems concerning development processes and test tools. This description covers today’s advanced driver assistance systems with environment perception in passenger cars, commercial vehicles, and motorcycles. This includes functional principles as well as embodiments of the components required for this purpose, such as sensors, actuat...

This open access book explores the recent developments automated driving and Car2x-communications are opening up attractive opportunities future mobility. The DFG priority program “Cooperatively Interacting Automobiles” has focused on the scientific foundations for communication-based automated cooperativity in traffic.Communication among traffic participants allows for safe and convenient traffic that will emerge in swarm like flow. This book investigates requirements for a cooper...
