In diesem Zusammenhang wurde bereits im Jahr 2013 ein Graduiertenzentrum zur Unterstützung der Promovierenden und Betreuenden an der THI eingeführt. Im Jahr 2023 folgte der Start zweier Promotionszentren an der THI. Grundlage hierfür war das im Januar 2023 in Kraft getretene Bayerische Hochschulinnovationsgesetz (BayHIG), das die Möglichkeit zur Verleihung eines fachgebundenen und befristeten eigenständigen Promotionsrechts an bayerischen Hochschulen für angewandte Wissenschaften geschaffen hat. In einem Begutachtungsverfahren überzeugte die THI mit dem Promotionszentrum Ingenieurwissenschaften (PZ ING) und dem Promotionszentrum Künstliche Intelligenz / Informatik (PZ KI/INF) durch eine nachweisbare Forschungsstärke und die Einbettung der wissenschaftlichen Qualifizierung in eine grundständige akademische Lehre. In den Promotionszentren ING und KI/INF sind derzeit jeweils 23 forschungsstarke Professorinnen und Professoren tätig. Innerhalb der ersten zweieinhalb Jahre wurden 90 Doktorandinnen und Doktoranden in die beiden Promotionszentren der THI aufgenommen, drei von ihnen haben mittlerweile den kompletten Promotionsprozess durchlaufen und ihre Promotion erfolgreich abgeschlossen. Im Folgenden werden strukturelle und prozessuale Erfahrungen sowie vor allem Spannungsfelder und Aspekte der Qualitätssicherung in den Promotionszentren beleuchtet.

Since communication is particularly challenging for persons with intellectual disability (PID), we investigated which gestures are used during street crossings and whether they differ between PID and persons with no diagnosed disability (PnDD). We conducted a virtual reality study with N=70participants ( n=38PID, n=32PnDD), observing participants’ movement and gestures in a road-crossing scenario and having them rate their presence, user experience, and the AV’s behavior. PID descriptively gestured less often than PnDD (33.3% vs. 18.8% of trials without a gesture), though this difference was not statistically significant. The increased learning effect of using gestures improves crossing time for PID. We identified three primary gestures (Greet, Barrier, Stop) that both groups equally favored. Our work contributes to making bidirectional communication with AVs more inclusive by providing insights into gestures used by PnDD and PID and identifying indicators of subconscious learning effects when using gestures.

This neglects how calendar and cyclic degradation alter a cell’s mechanical, thermal, and structural state before abuse, leaving the literature on aged cells apparently contradictory. This review establishes an aging-aware interpretive framework that separates three levels commonly conflated: the boundary conditions governing deformation, the study-specific criteria and evidence strength behind a declared electrical event, and the post-trigger hazard progression captured within the available monitoring window. A descriptive synthesis of 22 normalized fresh-to-aged comparisons from 13 primary studies shows no universal aging-driven shift of the reported comparison event toward earlier or later force–displacement states, with force and displacement changing in the same direction in only about half of the cases. An apparent format-associated displacement pattern is substantially attenuated when the pouch-cell displacement ratios are normalized by the respective initial cell thicknesses: the pouch-cell median displacement ratio decreases from 1.07 to approximately 1.00, and the remaining variation differs across aging routes and states of charge, although their individual contributions cannot be separated in the available dataset. Many apparent contradictions likewise stem from non-equivalent mechanical boundary conditions and trigger definitions, and continuity of confinement—especially for pouch cells aged under stack pressure and tested in a relaxed state—is identified as a frequently overlooked interpretive variable, although no controlled aged-cell study has yet isolated its contribution. An earlier-reported trigger does not necessarily imply a more severe outcome. We distill these requirements into a tier-resolved reporting checklist, providing a more rigorous and reusable basis for abuse-test interpretation, model development, and safety qualification of batteries intended for long service life and second-life deployment.
