Annotation
The course 'Vehicle Dynamics' is aimed at gaining a basic understanding about vehicle lateral dynamics. It offers a good balance between fundamentals and practical aspects of vehicle lateral dynamics in relationship to its suspension components including tyres. With this basis, students will learn how to set up equations of motion and derive fundamental mathematical models to understand and experiment the basic phenomena of Vehicle Dynamics.
