#technologyneutral approach is needed to meet the climate target and reduce #GHG in the #mobilitysector. Time⏱️ is running and we need to take into account #Resources #Availability #Affordability and need all #Innovative technologies like #BEV #PHEV #HEV #EFuels #HVO #H2ICE to promote new technologies and get support for #CO2reduction by existing fleet and infrastructure . Over the last years German Association FVV had been carried out very deep and scientific 💡 studies . https://lnkd.in/eQ8Hc5pb in German and English Language . Still very worthwhile reading and reviewing 👍 "Concentrating on a single technology will result in a lack of resources, even in a circular economy. The FVV study consciously works with what are known as ›100 per cent scenarios‹, as these enable an excellent comparison of the environmental impact of individual technologies throughout the entire energy chain and the vehicle life cycle, while also allowing bottlenecks to be determined. Comparing the demand for critical raw materials with the available reserves and resources shows that – even assuming a high recycling rate – certain raw materials will become very scarce if the rest of the world follows the European model and uses the same technologies. The raw materials in question depend on the selected combination of energy carrier and powertrain. For example, if the selected technology is battery electric vehicles using the currently dominant battery technology (lithium-ion batteries with nickelmanganese-cobalt cathodes), cobalt and lithium availability will be the limiting factor for the ramp-up speed, and this will have a significant impact on the cost of the batteries. Moving to solid-state batteries with a pure lithium anode will significantly exacerbate the scarcity of resources in the lithium supply chain. For fuel cell powertrains, the availability of platinum is a highly limiting factor. In a scenario in which the entire world transitions to 100 per cent fuel cell use, all known resources will not be sufficient, let alone those that can be tapped in an economically viable manner. No such bottlenecks are currently known when it comes to the use of hydrogen or synthetic fuels in combustion engines" https://lnkd.in/eQ8Hc5pb

Height differences between platforms and vehicle entrances make access to #rail #vehicles difficult or impossible, especially for people with disabilities or limited #mobility, such as wheelchair users.   The "Development and testing of boarding assistance systems" project of the Deutsches Zentrum für Schienenverkehrsforschung(DZSF) aims to solve this problem by developing on-board boarding assistance systems. At present, these systems cannot usually be operated by the #passengers themselves, meaning that independent access for people with reduced mobility is not possible, which contradicts the principle of the greatest possible independence in personal mobility (Article 20 of the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities - UN CRPD). The accessibility required by the Basic Law and the UN CRPD has not yet been fully achieved.   The DZSF project "Development and testing of boarding assistance systems" will investigate the requirements for independently operable on-board boarding assistance systems and evaluate possible applications and the feasibility of these systems in real railway operations. To this end, comprehensive catalogues of requirements will be developed in #collaboration with the relevant stakeholders, including disabled and/or mobility-impaired passengers, rail operators and #manufacturers.   The project will draw up a detailed catalogue of requirements for #selfservice on-board boarding aids and ensure that these are tailored to the needs and expectations of the relevant stakeholders. The results will serve as a basis for the further development and practical implementation of such systems in order to promote greater independence and accessibility in rail transport. With RMR | Rail Market Research, we report on similarly exciting and current research projects in a monthly newsletter. The latest issue can be found here: https://lnkd.in/dBdMEeMR

Rules to win at innovation. Rule # 1. Never trust a person with your business who cannot navigate the complexities of a sweater with only one drawstring. I see things differently. If you enjoy viewing the world through a different lens and exploring the nuance others miss, please follow me on LinkedIn. #innovationmanagement #IDoMyOwnStunts You'll have to explain this one to me, Ruta Sudmantaite.

Back to RWTH Aachen University… … always a pleasure meeting again my former colleagues and students. Talking about the hydrogen economy, on projects, technology, challenges and opportunities. And all, let’s remember the painful System Integration for renewables… who is still aware on fault ride through requirements, reactive power injection, voltage stabilization measures etc for wind turbines and parks? On testing and certification? All of that we managed already once… and we will also manage for electrolyzers… but we need to be pragmatic, focused and collaborative. By all parties involved! And we need to think in system solutions rather than on component level only. I am looking forward to making this happen… technology, testing and verification is now what we need.

Better Software = Better Research In an exciting sandpit format, the Klaus Tschira Stiftung invited participants to an intensive two-day exchange at the Villa Bosch in beautiful Heidelberg: Research Software Engineering meets Software Engineering Research meets Research Software Engineering Research. Why? Software development is an elementary and indispensable part of research activities. Research software supports, among other things, the modeling and simulation of complex processes or the acquisition, processing and evaluation of empirical data. Software therefore has a significant influence on the quality of the research results achieved. The discussion revolved around the following questions: 👉 How can research software development be appropriately acknowledged in the research process and how can recognition for software development as a scientific achievement be increased? 👉 How can anchoring in the scientific reputation system be improved and reproducibility ensured?  👉 How can the limited availability and usability of research software be improved, subsequent use ensured and multiple and parallel development prevented? 👉 How can skills in research software engineering be improved? 👉 How can missing quality standards for the development and review of research software be developed? 👉 How can research funding best address the needs in different disciplines? Other countries are way ahead I addressing those issues. The Netherlands set up the eScience Center in 2012 (sic!). Thanks to Joris van Eijnatten for the really enlightening insights. 👉 https://lnkd.in/djprETib That was a very dedicated group that came together. Thanks for those two intense days Michael Goedicke I Ramin Yahyapour I Dieter Kranzlmueller I Bernhard Rumpe I Jürgen Hesser I Guido Juckeland I Albrecht Schmidt I Hendryk Bockelmann | Jan Hagenauer I Alexander Stukowski I Dogan Mustafa I Robert Speck I Frank Löffler I Florian Mannseicher. 🙏 And thanks for bringing us together Rafael Lang I Verena Viarisio I Anja Heinzelmann.

Half-time of the Siemens stage program at #HM24 under the motto "Go Digital, Become Sustainable". ⏱ Three of many highlights so far were singled out by Cedrik Neike, CEO Siemens Industry, and Tony Hemmelgarn, CEO Siemens Digital Industries Software, this year's booth captain: 1. Customer-centric focus 🎯 - In recent years, Siemens was used to have different booths for hardware and software at HANNOVER MESSE. This year, we experience one solution-oriented booth, targeting individual customer problems and addressing vertical-specific solutions. Focus has shifted from technology-centricity and product show-offs towards customer-centricity and customer journey optimization. 2. Sustainability takes center stage 🌳 - Customers are demanding it, capital is flowing towards it, and reporting and compliance commitments are being made. Sustainability has become a major driver in the industry and is part of every element of this year's show. It's time for companies to become sustainable Digital Enterprises by combining the real and digital worlds, leveraging insights from holistic data flows across the entire value chain. 3. Scaling and democratizing AI 💻 - Generative AI is accelerating Digital Transformation even faster and is transforming industry. Scaling AI presents a key challenge, though. Therefore, Siemens aims to make it accessible to everyone by rolling out the first GenAI-powered product for engineering in an industrial environment. The 'Industrial Copilot' revolutionizes human-machine collaboration by enabling people to enhance efficiency and speed up processes. It accelerates the generation of complex automation code, reduces development times, and increases productivity. The Industrial Copilot will be available for download from the Siemens Xcelerator marketplace starting in summer 2024.

The joint venture you're referring to is likely aimed at enhancing #Volkswagen's capabilities in developing **Software-Defined Vehicles (SDVs)**. By focusing on a **zonal architecture**, Volkswagen Group can streamline the integration of software and hardware within their vehicles. This approach allows for more efficient data processing and connectivity, which are critical for advanced features like #autonomous driving and electric vehicle systems. The shift towards zonal architecture means that instead of having numerous individual control units for different functions, the vehicle will have a few powerful central computers managing multiple domains. This not only reduces complexity but also allows for easier updates and scalability. In the context of the automotive industry, accelerating the development of software/electric architectures is indeed crucial. It enables car manufacturers like VW Group to adapt quickly to new technologies and customer demands, ensuring competitiveness in a rapidly evolving market.

Very interesting. You can see this as one of the components which is better done with focus - similar to the journey that automotive goes since 100 years - remember that Ford build an own city “Fordlandia” in Brazil to harvest rubber for the tires in absence of a delivery chain. On the other hand side- was there really a lot of innovation for CarPlay in the last years? And using MBUX Zero Layer at the moment makes it a hard battle deciding between native manufacturer software and CarPlay every ride. For sure it is a great example that it is not enough to build a mediocre software and call it “Entertainment platform strategy” - it requires own ecosystem attributes. One example is openness & standardization - how your ecosystem partners are able to integrate? As app developer it is way easier to integrate into CarPlay than into 30 automotive manufacturers. A common standard connector / API strategy agreed between the manufacturers might solve here one of the issues… Until then - having Teams meetings in the car > CarPlay; listening to Spotify > CarPlay, just have a smooth ride,…
