Integrating design for environment to achieve carbon neutral mobility

Session MO.1.B || Transformation Towards Future Mobility Authors Forell, Alexander; Danzer, Christoph Abstract Decarbonizing mobility, especially individual mobility and heavy duty transportation, is a challenging endeavor. Studies have shown that a close to net zero use stage can be achieved with any powertrain (ICEV – eFuels, FCEV – hydrogen electrolysis, BEV – direct renewable electricity). [...]

Improving runoff water quality through an innovative and sustainable drainage system

Authors Arias, Andrea; Arufe, Sainza; Recarey, Montse; Fierro, Julio; Martínez, Cristina; Fernández, Isaac Abstract Diffuse pollution is caused by anthropogenic activities that have no specific point of discharge, such as agriculture, transport, forestry… Pollutants deposited on to impervious surfaces (e.g. roads or pavements) are washed out by runoff water, such as metals, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons [...]

Design and material based Sustainable Mobility

Authors Tikana, Ladji; Nuno, Fernando; Jezdinsky, Tomas; Gonzales, Manuel Abstract Discussion around decarbonisation of our society leads to the fact that mobility has become a hotspot that we need to tackle. Hence the electrification of the mobility has been intensified all around the world. For designers, tier 1 and automotive OEMs the question remains which [...]

Methane from renewable energies for the transportation sector – an environmental analysis of the crucial value chain

Authors Lozanovski, Aleksandar; Graf, Roberta; Held, Michael Abstract The energy transition needs to progress hand in hand with a transition of the mobility sector. One approach that offers CO2 reduction perspectives for both sectors as well as advantages through the possible gradual replacement of fossil solutions through renewable sources are Power-to-Gas-based technologies. To enable a [...]

Environmental assessment of weight-optimized components with complex geometries for trucks and other heavy machinery in the transport sector.

Authors Arcos, Raul; Berzosa, Joan; Espí, José Jorge; Parareda, Sergi; Clarens, Frederic; Larsson, Jan; Sieurin, Henrik Abstract Warmlight project aims at enabling weight-optimized components with complex geometries. The components are manufactured with a thermo-mechanical forming process (warm forming) and, as a result, the weight reduction of some parts made from AHSS is estimated at 20%. [...]
