This challenge awaits you:

New emission limits and ambitious CO2 legislation are presenting vehicle manufacturers with new challenges. At IAV, we are working to shape a new era of powertrain technology, including the exploration of alternative fuel options - hydrogen is just one example. A hydrogen drive needs a mobile or fixed storage system. Due to the highly explosive nature of hydrogen, even in small quantities, careful monitoring for leaks is essential. Our diagnostic methods are based on a combination of software analytics and carefully selected sensors (temperature and pressure).

Our functional and software development team is looking forward to students* who are willing to expand their knowledge and work with us at the forefront of innovation. Be part of our vision and help us think outside the box!

Your Tasks:

• You evaluate the deviations determined in relation to possible influencing factors such as zero point shift, hysteresis during measurement, temperature dependence, ageing, etc.
• You consider and compare the individually determined influencing factors in terms of how they can distort the value to be measured in combination (maximum deviation).
• You derive a diagnostic concept with regard to the number and arrangement of suitable sensors.
• You will implement the concept prototypically with the help of MATLAB Simulink.
• You will evaluate and validate the developed model with regard to the quality of the diagnostic result.

Necessary Skills:

• Ongoing studies in the field of mechatronics, mechanical engineering, control engineering or similar disciplines
• Interest in vehicle technology, mechatronics and simulation
• Good knowledge of MATLAB/Simulink
• Good written and spoken German and English skills

Desired Skills:

• Team and communication skills
• Independent, solution-oriented working methods and a high level of commitment
• Strong analytical thinking skills
• High level of personal responsibility
• Basic knowledge of fluid dynamics
