Vehicle Dynamics is the study of a vehicle behavior during motion which plays a vital role in finding out the right balance between driver feel, comfort and safety of passengers and and the wow factor which we all experience during driving.

Automotive aerodynamics is the study of the aerodynamics of road vehicles. The main concerns of automotive aerodynamics are reducing drag, reducing wind noise, and preventing undesired lift forces at high speeds. For some classes of racing vehicles, it may also be important to produce desirable downwards aerodynamic forces to improve traction and thus cornering abilities.
Course Objective
- Defines the Vehicle Aerodynamics, through its coupling to energy efficiency, is important in the creation of a sustainable society.
- Understand the coupling between the fundamental theories of Fluid Dynamics and Vehicle Aerodynamic applications.
- Explain the criteria/conditions for achieving good Aerodynamic design of passenger- and commercial vehicles.
- Recognize the strengths and limitations of the different tools used to optimize and evaluate Aerodynamic performance.
- Be able to evaluate aerodynamic properties of a vehicle, by analyzing wind tunnel and CFD results, as well as suggest improvements to an existing design.
- Recognize implications of Aerodynamics on other vehicle attributes such as Thermal Management, Aeroacoustics, Contamination, and Climate Comfort.
