Call for Papers
Chassis systems are benefiting from two megatrends: automated driving and electric mobility. Over the next few years, the chassis will become a key element of innovation for both of these areas. This will include a more extensive use of X-by-wire technologies, AI tools, driving simulators, and over-the-air updates. An essential precondition for this will be fast communication with central or domain computers. Integrating the technologies of steering and braking systems into the vehicle as a whole will lead to driver assistance systems that can be improved as a result. Future aspects such as sustainability, lightweight design, and reduced particulate emissions are also being implemented in innovative products.
Through advancements in product design and testing, development departments are driving forward numerous innovations in performance, driving enjoyment, usability, and driving comfort – all aspects that are decisive in achieving a transformational driving experience and global market success, especially in countries such as China and India. At the same time, reliability, dynamics, quality, and efficiency still remain the basis for the next generation of intelligent chassis systems.
The 17th International Munich Chassis Symposium chassis.tech plus will bring together numerous experts in wheel suspension systems, steering, brakes, and tires/wheels as well as for automated driving for an exchange of experience and constructive discussions. This is your opportunity to show us what your innovative research and development activities currently look like. On behalf of the Scientific Advisory Boards, we cordially invite you to submit a paper and to contribute to the success of this globally recognized event. After the symposium, your paper will be published as part of the conference proceedings at Springer Vieweg and on the online platforms Springer Link and Springer Professional.
We look forward to talking with you.
Further details on submitting a paper can be found in this Call for Papers.
