Collaborative research: Smart Vehicle Concepts Center (NSF/IUCRC)

俄亥俄州立大学成立了智能汽车概念产业/大学合作研究中心(I/UCRC)。I/UCRC将专注于车辆设计的新趋势和新兴趋势，智能结构、下一代悬挂或安装设备、极大改进的执行器或阀门以及智能传感器将被集成在一起，以开发未来的地面车辆。除了向工业界提供相关研究成果外，该中心还将成为信息和教育的来源，不仅对大学生，而且对实习工程师。I/UCRC将帮助美国汽车业在日益困难的全球经济中保持竞争力。

An Industry/University Cooperative Research Center (I/UCRC) for Smart Vehicle Concepts has been established at the Ohio State University. The I/UCRC will focus on novel and emerging trends in vehicle design where smart structures, next generation suspension or mounting devices, vastly improved actuators or valves, and intelligent sensors will be integrated to develop ground vehicles of the future.In addition to providing relevant research results to industry, the Center will be a source of information and education, not only to university students, but also to practicing engineers. The I/UCRC will help the U.S. automotive industries to remain competitive in an increasingly difficult global economy.
