Our former colleague Paul Schönhuber wrote his dissertation on the topic: “Driving dynamics analysis and optimization of a novel lightweight bogie for freight cars.”
Present on January 15, 2026, the day of the oral examination, were Prof. Schindler and Prof. Pfaff (IFS) as well as Prof. Markus Hecht, TU Berlin. The chair of the proceedings, Univ.-Prof. Dr. sc.
