DigiTain

Digitalisation for Sustainability

Project logo.

Project DigiTain is developing processes, methods and models for the fully digital product development and certification of electric drive architectures that not only aim to develop competitive drives from the outset, but also incorporate ecological and economic sustainability criteria. The aim is a holistic development of the entire vehicle and drive architecture, taking into account all subsystems. The application and validation of the sustainability-oriented development process (SDP) as well as the generic methods and models developed are carried out using the example of the development and optimisation of an electric vehicle with a hybrid powertrain consisting of a fuel cell unit and HV battery system. To implement state-of-the-art digital and sustainable development approaches, the ILK, represented by the Chair of Function-integrative Lightweight Engineering [Prof. Dr.-Ing. Niels Modler], is working together with the Chair of Virtual Product Development (VPE) [Prof. Dr.-Ing. Kristin Paetzold-Byhain] specifically on solutions for sustainable drive architectures. TU Dresden is focusing on the work packages Sustainability, Digital Methods and Models, HV Battery System and Electric Drive Unit.
