Goals

In the lecture Vehicle/Road Dynamics, the focus is on the dynamic interaction of the vehicle with its environment. The tire/road contact is of outstanding importance here. The loads effective in the contact point impact the vehicle structure via the chassis and have a significant influence on the movements of the entire vehicle body.
The description and interpretation of the resulting overall vehicle movements is therefore an essential part of this course. For this purpose, mechanical component and overall vehicle models with different levels of detail are built and discussed. The perception of vibrations on the human body is highly subjective; a holistic objectification is the subject of current research. Approaches for describing vibration comfort are presented that show a high correlation to the subjective impression of comfort. For a validation of the mechanical models, an experimental identification of the vehicle vibrations is necessary. Experimental methods for determining these vehicle movements and application examples of exemplary overall vehicle analyses are presented.
