Proceedings Ein Stetig Steigender Fundus an Informationen Ist Heute Notwendig, Um Die Immer Komplexer Werdende Technik Heutiger Kraftfahrzeuge Zu Verstehen Proceedings Ein stetig steigender Fundus an Informationen ist heute notwendig, um die immer komplexer werdende Technik heutiger Kraftfahrzeuge zu verstehen. Funktionen, Arbeitsweise, Komponenten und Systeme entwickeln sich rasant. In immer schnel- leren Zyklen verbreitet sich aktuelles Wissen gerade in Konferenzen, Tagungen und Symposien in die Fachwelt. Den raschen Zugriff auf diese Informationen bie- tet diese Reihe Proceedings, die sich zur Aufgabe gestellt hat, das zum Verständnis topaktueller Technik rund um das Automobil erforderliche spezielle Wissen in der Systematik aus Konferenzen und Tagungen zusammen zu stellen und als Buch in Springer.com wie auch elektronisch in SpringerLink und Springer für Professio- nals bereit zu stellen. Die Reihe wendet sich an Fahrzeug- und Motoreningenieure sowie Studieren- de, die aktuelles Fachwissen im Zusammenhang mit Fragestellungen ihres Ar- beitsfeldes suchen. Professoren und Dozenten an Universitäten und Hochschulen mit Schwerpunkt Kraftfahrzeug- und Motorentechnik finden hier die Zusammen- stellung von Veranstaltungen, die sie selber nicht besuchen konnten. Gutachtern, Forschern und Entwicklungsingenieuren in der Automobil- und Zulieferindustrie sowie Dienstleistern können die Proceedings wertvolle Antworten auf topaktuelle Fragen geben.

Is it the broad range of current and important topics that line the agenda? The expert presentations guiding the way for the future? Or is it because the event takes place in Stuttgart, the heart of the automotive state, Baden-Wuerttemberg, and is attended by prominent participants from both the business and research sectors? The answer is: All of the above! th For the 16 installment of the Conference, I am glad to be assuming patronage for the event and welcome all the participants and speakers. This year’s focus topic, “Global products versus non-global requirements”, addresses the challenges facing both the economy in general and the automobile industry in par- ticular: What are the consequences resulting from the contrast between global sales and adaptation to country-specific norms? How can these be overcome? The Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership (TTIP) that is currently being ne- gotiated between political decision makers in the US and the EU is intended to resolve exactly these issues, such as this conflict of interests in the automotive sector. One of the key intentions of this agreement is to standardize the respective national regula- tions and requirements for products sold globally on both sides of the Atlantic – such as: side mirrors, blinkers and crash tests – and introduce a unified, high standard of safety and security. This will lead to the removal of expensive duplicate standards, which, despite nearly identical safety norms, have up to now required redundant develop- ment and certification processes. Consumers ultimately stand to benefit once this burden is lifted. Such a development will likewise be significant for the automotive industry in Baden-Wuerttemberg – and for the associated machinery, metal and electronic in- dustries – in that Germany, as an export country, will be able to set the standards ac- cording to which our worldwide trading partners will have to adapt – not the other way around! Our high level of precision, reliability, quality and safety together present a strong sales argument. As such, these high standards should not be weakened in the course of the TTIP negotiations. The Government of Baden-Wuerttemberg fundamen- tally supports the TTIP agreement, but also insists that the high safety standards asso- ciated with products “made in Baden-Wuerttemberg” are not lowered in any way. I would like to thank all those who have been involved in organizing and executing this event. I hope that all the attendees will benefit from the exciting discussions, interesting presentations and also gain new ideas for their own work. Winfried Kretschmann Prime Minister of the State of Baden-Wuerttemberg V AWARMWELCOME Demands on the automotive industry in terms of research and development are con- stantly in flux. Producers and suppliers are forced to create global solutions while also considering individual customer needs as well as the legislative requirements in each market. Even emissions regulations are anything but unified globally. Starting in Sep- tember 2017, Europe plans to implement a measurement termed “real-driving emis- sions” (RDE). Evaluating pollutant emissions will be done on the street rather than at a testing station, with far-reaching consequences for engine development. Many re- gions around the globe are, at the same time, calling for localized zones with emis- sions-free traffic. This all overlaps with the ongoing process of reducing CO2 limits for vehicle fleets, with all world regions having defined various steps to achieve re- ductions in this area. This is topped by rising demands in terms of the comfort and emotionality of cars. How will the automotive industry respond to the growing con- flict between increasing globalization and maximized global product marketing, on the one hand, and diverse, particular regional requirements for vehicles, on the other? What are the technical impacts of this? Industry and research experts will report on and discuss these issues and many more at the 16th Stuttgart International Symposium for “Automotive and Engine Technology” on 15 ---- 16 March 2016. In six parallel sessions with over one hundred presentations, leading experts will ad- dress the current state of technological development, their most recent research find- ings, and concepts for the future. The program spans the entire process of vehicle cre- ation, from research and development through to production. This year, we have also been able to invite excellent keynote speakers and participants for the subsequent po- dium discussion. This will be supplemented by numerous opportunities for exchang- ing ideas, be it in relation to technical discussions, at the accompanying trade exhibi- tion, or in the social context of breaks and the evening event. We look forward to seeing you in Stuttgart, the birthplace of the automobile! Prof. Dr.-Ing. Michael Bargende Prof. Dr.-Ing. Hans-Christian Reuss Prof. Dr.-Ing.

  • Press Release 25 Years of Bosch
    Press release 25 years of Bosch ESP®: no more skidding May 19, 2020 Breakthrough for road safety PI 11130 BBM cs/af In the U.S., the electronic stability program saved more than 9,000 lives from 2008 – 2015. Worldwide, 82 percent of all new passenger cars feature the anti-skid system. ESC has been a mandated feature on all vehicles since the 2012 model year in the U.S. Harald Kroeger: “The development of ESP® was a milestone on the path to our ‘vision zero’ of no more road deaths.” Stuttgart, Germany – A wet road and a sudden evasive maneuver: there was a time when such a situation would frequently have ended in a ditch or against a crash barrier, and not rarely with fatalities or severe injuries. Almost 25 years ago to the day, a remedy was finally provided in the shape of a pioneering invention – the ESP® electronic stability program that Bosch and Daimler-Benz first launched in S-class vehicles in 1995. Since then, ESP® has been keeping vehicles safely on track, also in critical situations. Bosch accident researchers estimate that in the EU alone, the anti-skid system has saved some 15,000 lives over the past 25 years, as well as preventing just under half a million accidents involving personal injury. In the U.S., NHTSA estimates the technology saved more than 2,000 lives from 2008-20101 and more than 7,000 lives for the 5-year period from 2011 – 2015.2 In the last year of the NHTSA study, 2015, the technology saved nearly 2,000 lives alone.
