ADVANCED VEHICLE DYNAMICS FOR PASSENGER CARS AND LIGHT TRUCKS “This class strengthened the things I knew and
Governing state-space equations with transfer functions for primary ride and open loop handling will be developed & analyzed. Building on the analysis of the state space equations, common physical tests and their corresponding CAE solutions for steady state and transient vehicle events will be presented. The “state-of-the-art” of vehicle dynamics CAE will be discussed. Common lab and vehicle tests and corresponding metrics used to assess chassis system and vehicle performance will be discussed in great detail. Hands-on workshops using CARSIM™ vehicle dynamics simulation software will help reinforce the material. Significant time will also be dedicated to the use of design of experiments (DOE) as a tool to assist in the analysis and optimization of chassis systems for multiple vehicle responses. LEARNING OBJECTIVES By attending this seminar, you will be able to: • Apply vehicle dynamics theory to practical evaluation and measurement • Use governing state space equations and transfer functions to determine the e¥ect of key parameters on primary ride and open loop handling • Describe the current “state-of-the-art” of vehicle dynamics CAE • Articulate various types of vehicle dynamics models • Recognize kinematics and compliance (K&C) lab tests commonly used to quantify chassis system performance • Identify and evaluate important K&C metrics used in vehicle dynamics development • Identify and utilize important vehicle tests commonly used in industry to evaluate ride, steering and handling performance • Relate chassis system characteristics to vehicle dynamic performance • Utilize vehicle dynamics CAE software for the simulation of common physical lab and vehicle tests • Apply design-of-experiments (DOE) to vehicle dynamics development WHO SHOULD ATTEND This seminar is designed for automotive engineers in the vehicle dynamics, chassis, suspension, steering and braking fields who work in product design, development, testing, simulation or research.
