HYVE Engineering Contest

Deadline: 2014-11-26
Award: Cash prizes totalling 6,500 €

We, the HYVE Innovation Community, strive to innovate with you. Our latest idea contest is highly challenging - yet, creative ideas are able to influence the engineering world to a great extent:
An internal combustion engine (ICE) can be started by an electric machine. This procedure is determined as a tow-start and is used in many forms in today’s powertrains. Nevertheless the coordination of e-machine, clutch and combustion engine is challenging. A quick and smooth start has to be ensured. To probe the causes and generate new, innovative ideas for clutch systems that guarantee an ideal interplay between all components, this idea contest was launched on October 1st.

Submit your ideas and get the chance to meet the experts behind the contest. The best ideas will be awarded:

First winner: 3.000 €
Second winner: 2.000 €
Third winner: 1.000 €
