Abstract

Recent developments of information technology and mobile lifestyle have forced drivers to multitask while they drive. The in-vehicle “infotainment” technology is already taking its place in the transformation of vehicles towards more intelligent and interactive devices rather than [...]

Abstract

fault classification method is proposed which has been applied to an electric vehicle. Potential faults in the different subsystems that can affect the vehicle directional stability were collected in a failure mode and effect analysis. Similar driveline faults were grouped together [...]

Abstract

Computational human body models are widely used for automotive crashsafety research and design and as such have significantly contributed to a reduction of traffic injuries and fatalities. Currently crash simulations are mainly performed using models based on crash-dummies. However [...]

Abstract

[EN] Driving a private vehicle represents nowadays one of the most viable ways by which disabled drivers can maintain their mobility and transport conditions. To do so it is necessary to adapt a vehicle to the user's residual capabilities. Nevertheless the technical aids installed [...]
