The battery is undoubtedly the most complex component of modern electric cars and is largely responsible for the driving experience and range. However, over the course of its service life, it is subject to a continuous loss of performance due to degradation mechanisms that impair its storage capacity and thus the range and power output of the vehicle.
Dishwashers are one of those common household appliances that can be found in almost every modern kitchen. Over the decades, not only have dishwasher designs and capabilities been adapted, but the methods and technologies used to analyze and enhance various aspects of dishwasher efficiency have also changed significantly.
Electromobility is facing a key challenge: battery charging times must be minimized in order to increase the acceptance of electric vehicles. This is of key importance as, alongside range, charging time is one of the most important factors for user satisfaction.
Global initiatives and actions to reach long-term climate goals are evidently resulting in the development and industrialization of new electrolyzer systems. Significant growth of announced electrolyzer projects is forecasted each year and solid oxide electrolyzers (SOEC) are one of the most promising technologies.
Understanding and managing the influence of soiling on a vehicle is a critical aspect of driving safety that needs to be considered while designing vehicles. Soiling or contamination can be caused by the deposition of fluid and solid contaminants on the vehicle surface due to splashing, harsh weather conditions while driving, ...

We are a leader in the development of innovative mobility systems, including hydrogen engines, hybrid powertrains, battery electric vehicles, and fuel cells. With expertise in driving functions, subsystems, and components, we are also perfectly set to support you in integrating these systems into vehicles for production. Furthermore, we focus on Advanced Driver Assistance Systems and fully automated driving, offer technology consulting and stationary energy application development.
Our global presence enables us to identify the rapidly changing requirements of the markets early on and in detail. Drawing on this knowledge, we support you in analyzing specific requirements and work with you to develop the perfect solution for your e-mobility targets. We utilize our in-depth knowledge of propulsion systems and components to develop the system you require and integrate it optimally into the vehicle. From hybrid to battery electric and fuel cell electric vehicles.
Since more functions and interactions influence today’s mobility, safety and comfort of the drivers become increasingly important aspects. To ensure that your vehicle meets the highest standards, legal requirements and end customer expectations in these areas, we support you in developing Advanced Driver Assistance functions with maximum reliability – and autonomous driving functions to the same standard. Our experience helps us derive the requirements for the ADAS/AD architecture of the future, and our experts keep up-to-date with international research and market-specific legislation.
Whether passenger cars or commercial vehicles – we factor in existing and new technologies as we bring your individual requirements in line with end user expectations. Our focus is on virtual and functional vehicle development, as well as integration of the vehicle systems into the vehicle.
We develop and optimize your entire hybrid system: Thanks to our extensive knowledge of the internal combustion engine, e-motor, hybrid drive, and power electronics to we can balance low consumption and compliant emissions with optimal driveability. Specific software and functions, including calibration, guarantee you the optimum operating strategy. Systems engineering and model-based simulation enable us to reduce your prototype and testing efforts in SOP vehicle derivative projects by up to 30%.
The energy systems of the future are in good hands with us. As for the production of energy carriers, we develop innovative, efficient technologies for the sustainable creation of hydrogen. And when it comes to stationary use of hydrogen, we support you with the development of sustainable systems for producing energy, for example, with our high-temperature fuel cell. We also advise you on energy management of the overall system. For example, on how to calculate the carbon footprint of vehicle fleets and forecast and estimate the energy requirements of buildings and factories.

These days, vehicles are very much software-defined products. Their development and validation is highly complex. This requires a level of efficiency that cannot be achieved with hardware-oriented development – but can be with simulation solutions.
Speed up your development by implementing simple and repeatable processes: from initial concept through system design to component construction and testing with the help of dedicated simulation tools.
For ADAS/AD to be considered safe, an immense amount of testing is required. Therefore, the paradigm shifts towards virtual testing and validation using simulation techniques is the logical consequence. We offer dedicated simulation tools to support you.
Current trends such as electrification, digitalization, connectivity and driver assistance mean that a holistic, multiphysical approach is necessary. Such an approach can only be achieved through virtual analysis, optimization, and validation. We are your partner.
Currently, it can be observed that virtual development is becoming the standard in the development process. This is exactly what we have developed our Simulation Suites for. Each suite is a comprehensive simulation solution that you can use throughout the entire development process - from initial concept creation to the vehicle.
Being around for decades, we all are very familiar with the combustion engine. With hybridization, it is now taking on a new role.
