Objetivos

Understand and explain the influence of different constructive solutions used in the steering, suspension, braking and transmission subsystems on the dynamic behavior of the car.

Resultados de aprendizagem e competências

At the end of the course and student should:

Understand the influence of different drivetrain architectures on the dynamic behavior of the vehicle;

Understand the role of forces and moments developed by tires in the dynamic behavior of the vehicle:

Know the various suspension/steering architectures and understand the advantages and disadvantages of each one of them;

Understand the functioning of a braking system and the need for the braking to be unevenly distributed between the two axles;

Know the constructive solutions of each element of a car's transmission system and its influence on its longitudinal dynamics;

Know how to integrate the knowledge described above in order to understand the interaction of the various subsystems and their consequences on the dynamic behavior of the car.
