Vehicle Dynamics Simulation Using MATLAB and Simulink for Student Competitions

Overview

In this webinar, we will provide an overview of how to use MATLAB and Simulink for vehicle modeling relevant to student automotive competitions and projects. First, we will introduce MATLAB by generating an optimal racing line for a race circuit useful for lap time simulations. We will then model a Formula Student Suspension with Simscape and Simscape Multibody. Finally, we will explore how to simulate longitudinal and lateral vehicle dynamics using Vehicle Dynamics Blockset. 

Highlights

• Racing line optimization
• Modeling Formula Student suspension system
• Simulating longitudinal and lateral vehicle dynamics
