Insegnamento: Racecar Vehicle Dynamics

Advanced Automotive Engineering (Offerta formativa 2024)

Obiettivi formativi

The main objectives are:
• module I Race track data analysis, performance parameters
• module II Racecar indoor testing
• Module III Correlation between racetrack data and simulator models

Prerequisiti

vehicle dynamics

the course is elective and the teaching language is English.
Students from all MUNER degrees can enroll.
'Veicoli' Master Degree students can enroll as well.

Programma del corso

The course is split into three modules:

1. Indoor Testing of Components (springs, anti-roll bars, dampers, fixtures) and Full Vehicle (stiffness, compliance, and kinematics). 4 and 7 Post (sensors, performance index).

2. Track Data Analysis: Problems issues, data interpretation, math channels, performance index and comparison between drivers and vehicles

3. Virtual Testing: Driving Simulator: kinematics, vehicle dynamics analysis, performance, setup adjustments, driver in the loop, hardware in the loop. Correlation between track data and sim data. Driving Simulator as a tool for Design and Development. Labs

Metodi didattici

The course includes:
(i) Lectures
(ii) Lab tests (simularo, inertia rim post rig)
(iii) Visit to a race track with ongoing activities
