Student work
The following topics are only an overview of possible questions. Many other topics are possible by arrangement. Please simply contact the scientific staff or Prof. Wulfsberg directly.
Shell Eco Marathon Competition
Contact: Dr.-Ing. Tobias Redlich & Mohammed Omer
Call for the Shell Eco Marathon competition
Are you interested in designing and building your own vehicle? Are you passionate about helping to shape the future of mobility? This is your chance!
HSU would like to participate in the Shell Eco Marathon. Every year Shell invites students from all over the world to participate in one of the world’s largest efficiency competitions around mobility. The global academic programme brings together science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) students to design, build and operate some of the world’s most energy-efficient vehicles. It’s all in the name of collaboration and innovation, as students’ bright ideas help shape a lower-carbon future for all. There is currently no team from Hamburg, and we want to showcase HSU on the world stage!
We are looking for motivated students who are ready to work towards the dream of developing their own electric vehicle. Building a car from scratch to road-ready is an engineering challenge where you will learn to work in a team, complete a project under time, cost and deadline constraints and find innovative solutions to engineering problems. This is a unique opportunity to put theory into practice and create something unique.
We are aiming to participate in the Electric Urban Concept category, where teams will be looking at urban driving. These vehicles are closer in appearance to passenger cars. They have to be built in a way that takes into account human needs such as driver comfort and space for luggage, and they have to have roadworthy specifications such as four wheels and a windscreen wiper. It is a challenge for the teams to achieve maximum energy efficiency with these additional mandatory elements.
The construction of an electric car can be divided into several subsystems. Some of these subsystems can be done by one or more students. The beauty of the project is that you could design, develop and build something new while working in a team, giving you invaluable teamwork skills. Some roles for the project that need to be filled are listed below. Any of these could be developed into Bachelor’s/Master’s thesis topics, in addition you could also suggest your own ideas.
1) Body Design / Aero
2) Powertrain Development
3) Wheels development
4) Brake system design
5) Steering system
6) Battery (pack) development
7) Battery Management System Design
8) Engine control system development
9) Software development
11) Manufacturing (in own open lab with e.g. milling machine, 3D printer, laser cutter etc.)
12) Procurement (as much as possible locally sourced)
13) Project management
14) Marketing, sponsoring & social media
15) Website design
16) Autonomous vehicle development
All design tasks can start with a literature review, design, material selection, simulations and analysis, prototyping, testing and manufacturing.
An example of bachelor/master thesis topics:
1) Design and development of an efficient electric motor (e.g. an electric motor integrated into the hub).
2) Development of an autonomous vehicle – use of lidar and cameras to build a fully autonomous vehicle.
3) Using computational fluid dynamics to design an aerodynamic and fuel efficient prototype vehicle.
Each of the tasks within the project are interlinked, which means that all students have to work together in a team. The concept is very similar to the Formula Student competition in which HSU already participates. However, the goal here is to build a car that has the potential to be roadworthy. The car is also to be manufactured with sustainability in mind, with the possibility of producing it in-house at the HSU Open Lab.

Filament production from pure and recycled material Process parameter study
Contact: KptLt Sascha Hartig, M.Sc.
The aim of the work is to produce filament on the filament extrusion line from the company 3devo. It is expected that this can be put into operation from the beginning of May. The focus is on the manufacturing parameters and their influence on the product produced (there are already a lot of specifications from the manufacturer). Test geometries are printed using the filament and subjected to various material tests.
This is followed by the production of filament from recycled material. For this purpose, material is shredded, dried and processed into filament. This is also about the manufacturing parameters. Another core part of the work is the creation of an automated material testing procedure to test a large number of material samples in a time-saving manner.

Material flows in the Fab City
Contact: Lennart Hildebrandt, M.Sc.
Urban (metropolitan) regions have a constant demand for various consumables and auxiliary materials (e.g. water, electricity). Many of these substances are not produced or sourced locally, but imported and exported as a waste product. But what are these substances? This work is about analysing the incoming and outgoing material flows from the Hamburg metropolitan region and pointing out alternative courses of action for the Fab City.
Added value analysis in the Fab City
Contact: Lennart Hildebrandt, M.Sc.
Through urban production and the maker movement, there are nowadays possibilities for the demand-oriented production of adapted consumer goods. This leads to different ecological, economic and social added values. This paper is about the analysis of social and entrepreneurial added values through production in urban space and in a Fab City.
