Ein Kritikpunkt an standardisierten Befragungen ist, dass sie teilweise den individuellen Bedürfnissen und der jeweiligen Situation der Befragungsteilnehmenden nicht gerecht werden (vgl. u. [...]

This research provides a techno-economic analysis of the integration of hydrogen technology into non-road mobile machinery. Conventional diesel and battery electric vehicle systems in the off-highway sector will be compared to hydrogen systems by a systematic and transparent approach supported by a methodological framework . [...]

Automated driving has the potential to reduce operational costs in trucking by eliminating the need for a human driver. However, equipping the vehicle with automation technology increases upfront costs. [...]

Long-term road network planning requires thorough prognoses of the network utilization as it is responsible for the future performance of the transport system and binds a considerable share of national household budgets. The Federal Transport Infrastructure Plan (Bundesverkehrswegeplan) outlines long-term planning for transportation infrastructure in Germany [...]

German road freight transport is facing a driver shortage of 57,000 to 80,000 drivers, representing a 9% deficit, according to the European Driver Shortage Report 2022 published by the International Road Transport Union. This shortage is expected to increase, with freight transport volumes projected to grow 46% from 2019 until 2051, as predicted by a recent federal forecast (Gleitende Langfrist-Verkehrsprognose 2021-2022) [...]

To build high speed magnetic bearings using sintered NdFeB magnets, it is necessary to assemble bandages with suitable interference by press-fitting. Here we investigate the joining process between titanium grade 5 bandages and sintered NdFeB magnets using finite element analysis (FEA) and experimental measurements with different friction. [...]
