SAE International® Professional Development FEATURED LEARNING OPPORTUNITIES
LEARNING OBJECTIVES By attending this seminar, you will be able to: • Determine how wheel loads relate to center of gravity location loading, aerodynamic & trailer towing forces, road grade, acceleration, braking, cornering • Describe how powertrain & brake systems produce longitudinal acceleration/ deceleration & powertrain type/traction limit influences • Explain mechanics of road load resistance from aerody- namics/tire rolling, ride, & how to design a vehicle/tune suspensions for good ride • Examine turning for low speed maneuverability/the mechanics of high-speed cornering • Explain tire, suspension, & steering system properties that account for understeer • Explain the primary mecha- nisms involved in the vehicle rollover process

Fundamentals of Vehicle Dynamics PD731620 17 Hours | On Demand Course OVERVIEW
This on-demand course featuring vehicle dynamics expert and best-selling author, Thomas D. Gillespie, provides a broad overview of vehicle performance, including engineering analyses and formulas that will allow you to calculate useful performance metrics. The goal of this course is to provide you with the tools to predict the performance of a car or truck in accelerating/braking, ride, and handling/rollover. In the process, you’ll come to understand the basic mechanisms and engineering principles that govern steering and suspension system design, as well as develop familiarity with the terminology. While the course is approximately 17 hours in length, the estimated time to completion, including knowledge checks and the learning assessment, is 18 hours.
