Crash Safety of Hybrid- and Electric Vehicles
Course Description During recent years, electric vehicles have achieved an ever-increasing importance for the automotive market. A compliance of future restrictions for CO2 emissions will not be possible without electrified power trains. All mayor OEM offer an increasing variety of hybrid vehicles (HEV), plug-in hybrid vehicles (PHEV) and pure electric vehicles (BEV). Also a first offer of fuel cell electric vehicles (FCEV) is in the market. Worldwide over 2 million electrified vehicles (BEV and PHEV) were on the road in 2017. The breakthrough of the automo- tive electrification is evident. Nevertheless, several challenges for vehicle safety arise with new these technologies. Electric shock risks on high-voltages systems, fire hazards in case of lithium-ion batteries and risks of rupture in case of gas tanks are the most important issues here. For every mode of drive, specific drive components and their particular safety requirements are described. In addition to common rules and standards, specific needs based on real-life accidents are being discussed. For all relevant vehicle components the respective safety requirements, safety concepts and exemplary safety initia- tives will be discussed. The state of the art concerning test standards, verification methods and possibilities for virtual safety will be shown. Future trends will be presented with the help of current research projects and results. Practical expe- rience of rescuing, recovering and towing of electric vehicles complete the spectrum of accident safety.
Course Objectives Participants will get an overview about automotive safety of electric vehicles and will learn the special challenges and solutions which come along. Participants will be able to apply test methods and safeguarding concepts and to pursue development strategies in a target-oriented way. Who should attend? The seminar addresses development and research engineers as well technicians in the fields of testing and engineering with electric vehicles. Due to its current relevance the course suits young professionals as well as experienced engineers who want to deepen their knowledge in this field. Course Contents Overview alternative drive systems: hybrid, electric vehicles, fuel cell, gas vehicles Challenges for vehicle safety Legal requirements and standards, Safety Requirements for real-world accidents Safety of high voltage systems Battery safety Gas tank safety Fuel cell safety Structural safety Safety concepts Rescuing, recovering and towing of electric vehicles
Rainer Justen (Daimler AG) has 30 years of experience in the field of vehicle safety. After his studies in mechanical engineering with a focus on automotive engineering he started his career in the automotive de - velopment at Daimler AG in 1987. Several career milestones in the fields of vehicle safety, project manage - ment, safety concepts and active safety / driver assistance systems made him an expert on all relevant topics of automotive safety. Since 2008 he is working in the field of safety for alternative drive systems. Rainer Justen is author of numerous publications and papers on this topic. In 2015 Rainer Justen received the SAE Automotive Safety Award for his work on the Safety of Li-Ion Batteries in Electric Vehicles from the American Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE).
