The motor vehicle technology covered in this book has become in the more than 125 years of its history in many aspects an extremely complex and, in many areas of engineering science . Motor vehicles must remain functional under harsh environmental conditions and extreme continuous loads and must also be reliably brought into a safe state even in the event of a failure by a few trained operators. The automobile is at the same time a mass product, which must be produced in millions of pieces and at extremely low cost. In addition to the fundamentals of current vehicle systems, the book also provides an overview of future developments such as, for example, in the areas of electromobility, alter...
Are we paying enough attention? At least since the nineteenth century, critics have alleged a widespread and profound failure of attentiveness—to others, to ourselves, to the world around us, to what is truly worthy of focus.

Each chapter begins with a concrete scene whose protagonists are trying—and often failing—to attend. Authors examine key moments in the history of the study of attention; pose attention...
The introduction into psychology explores new developments, methodical extensions and current trends in psychology. Based on the guidelines of the DGPs, all relevant basics and areas of applications, as well as fields of activities for Bachelor and Master students and those, who are practising, are being introduced. Renowned scientists are demonstrating the status of research using current findings and are explaining the approaches of the respective sub-disciplines. Examples are utilised to illustrate applications in actual cases and food for thought at the end of each chapter is to encourage a more in-depth consideration.
Beim 15. Wissenschaftsforum Mobilität in Duisburg wurde im Mai 2023 über das nächste Kapitel in der Mobilität diskutiert. Der Tagungsband präsentiert dazu Beiträge des Wissenschaftsforums an den Schnittstellen der betriebswirtschaftlichen und ingenieurwissenschaftlichen Forschung und zeigt Möglichkeiten auf, wie Unternehmen und Institutionen Mobilität in Zukunft bedarfsgerecht, ökologisch nachhaltig und ökonomisch rentabel anbieten können.
