Ergonomics teaches how to design technology in such a way that it is optimally adapted to the needs, wishes and characteristics of the user. In this context, the concept of the human-machine system has become established. In a systematic way and with a detailed view of the complicated technical and perceptual psychological and methodological connections, this book explains the basics of automotive ergonomics with numerous examples. The application is shown in examples such as package, design of displays and control elements, of environmental ergonomics such as lighting, sound, vibrations, climate and smell. The design of driver assistance systems from an ergonomic perspective is also a central topic. The book is rounded off by methods of ergonomic vehicle development, the use of mock-ups, driving simulators and tests in real vehicles and prototypes. For the first time, those responsible in the automotive industry and in the field of relevant research are provided with a specialized systematic work that provides the ergonomic findings in the design of today's automobiles. This provides planners and designers of today's automobiles with concrete information for ergonomic product development, enabling them to keep an eye on decisive requirements and subsequent customer acceptance. This book is a translation of the original German 1st edition Automobilergonomie by Heiner Bubb, Klaus Bengler, Rainer E. Grunen & Mark Vollrath, published by Springer Fachmedien Wiesbaden GmbH, part of Springer Nature in 2015. The translation was done with the help of artificial intelligence (machine translation by the service DeepL.com). A subsequent human revision was done primarily in terms of content, so that the book will read stylistically differently from a conventional translation. Springer Nature works continuously to further the development of tools for the production of books and on the related technologies to support the authors.

Ein ganz besonderes Problem, das sich heute den Automobilherstellern, ihren Zulieferern und Dienstleistern stellt, ist die extrem zunehmende Volatilitat und Entwicklungsgeschwindigkeit ihrer Markte und Produkte. In diesem Zusammenhang wird die Entwicklung und Verfugbarkeit zukunftssicherer Logistiksysteme immer mehr zu einem entscheidenden Wettbewerbs- und Erfolgsfaktor. Die Logistik wird zum Enabler einer hocheffizienten und flexiblen Fertigung einerseits, in Bezug auf die Servicequalitat auch zum Garant einer erfolgreichen Kundenbeziehung andererseits. Sie fungiert dabei als verbindendes Element innerhalb sowie auch ausserhalb der Unternehmensgrenzen. Dementsprechend ergeben sich auf kurz-, mittel- oder auch langfristige Sicht standig neue Anforderungen an die Adaptivitat der Wertschopfungsprozesse. Zur Bewaltigung dieser Anforderungen bedarf es eines umfassenden Konzeptes, beschrieben unter der Vision der Supra-Adaptivitat.

Sieben Lehrstuhle der Universitaten Regensburg, Nurnberg und Munchen haben gemeinsam mit 28 namhaften Industrieunternehmen innerhalb des Bayerischen Forschungsverbundes "Supra-adaptive Logistiksysteme (ForLog)" Losungen zur Verbesserung der netzwerkweiten Anpassungsfahigkeit entwickelt. Fue die Gestaltung der Supply Chain Architektur, die Wertschopfung, Aufgabenverteilung und Planung im Netzwerk, bis hin zu flexiblen Reaktionsmoglichkeiten im laufenden Betrieb werden Losungen angeboten. Flexibilitat, Motivation und Ressourceneinsatz sind dabei wichtige Stichworte."

Das Handbuch der Verkehrslogistik stellt die logistischen Probleme des Guterverkehrs umfassend und systematisch dar. Entwicklungstrends im Verkehr werden ebenso behandelt wie Logistiksysteme einzelner Branchen und der Verkehrswirtschaft insgesamt. In der Neuauflage werden erstmals ausgewahlte internationale Verkehrsmarkte und Aspekte des Wirtschaftsverkehrs behandelt. Ausserdem wurde ein Kapitel zu Knoten und Netzen in der Logistik erganzt und die Betriebsorganisation unter den Aspekten des Qualitatsmanagement und der Ergonomie neu beleuchtet."

Weltweit ist eine Zunahme neuer Hubschrauberentwurfe zu beobachten. Interne Vibrationsminderung und externe Gerauschentwicklung haben dabei als Entwicklungsziele stark gewonnen. Entscheidend bleiben weiterhin die Fliegbarkeit, als Flugmechanik bezeichnet, sowie die moegliche Nutzlast in Abhangigkeit von der Reichweite. Der Inhalt dieser 4. Auflage beschreibt diesbezugliche Entwicklungserfolge. Der Hubschrauber ist ein hoch komplexes System, im konstruktiven Aufbau sowie auf seine Dynamik bezogen. Die dafur notwendigen grundlegenden Kenntnisse der Besonderheiten fur Ingenieure und Nutzer vermittelt der Autor. Er behandelt die flugmechanischen Zusammenhange auf der Basis der relevanten Bauelemente: Steuerungssystem samt Verstarkungshydraulik, Taumelscheibe und Mischhebelgetriebe, zur Ansteuerung der Rotorblatter und damit zur Kontrolle des Hubschraubers im Normalbetrieb. Schwerpunkt ist die Flugmechanik, die zentrale Wissenschaft der gesamten Flugtechnik, zur Identifizierung der Flugstabilitaten und der noetigen Steuerbarkeit. Definitionen und Vereinbarungen werden genannt, im Rahmen der Auslegung werden Abflugmasse und Flugleistungen bestimmt. Die AR (Autorotation) als gefahrloses Landeverfahren wird erklart und der Bodeneffekt wird dargestellt. Die Kosten der Entwicklung und des spateren Betriebes werden ermittelt. Der Autor geht auch auf hubschrauberspezifische Besonderheiten ein: die gewunschte Nahe zu den zahlreichen Blattresonanzen, das Wirbelringstadium, die Flattergrenze, die dynamischen Kopplungen, der UEbergang von den DMZ (Dead Man`s Zone beim Flachenflugzeug) zur fast harmlosen AZ (Avoid Zone) des Hubschraubers. Aus den Bewegungsgleichungen entsteht die Dynamikmatrix, in der alle Eigenbewegungen enthalten sind, die Stabilitaten. Dagegen wirken die konstruktiv zu dimensionierenden Steuerbarkeiten, von den traditionellen niedrigen bis zu den heute moeglichen hohen Frequenzen. Einige Abschnitte wurden entsprechend neuester Erkenntnisse erweitert, z. B. die der dynamische Kopplungen und der Forschungsergebnisse im Bereich der noch weitgehend unerforschten einstationaren Aerodynamik, hubschraubertypisch, fur die ein Anstoss gegeben wird. Das Buch unterstutzt Leser, die sich mit Hubschrauberentwicklung und deren Betrieb befassen. Die zu erfullenden Forderungen und anzuwendenden Vorschriften lernt er kennen und kann sie rechtzeitig einbringen. Der Leser kann eine sachgerechte Beurteilung der zu erwartenden Flugeigenschaften und Kosten abgeben.
