Sub: Three Day Seminar on “Vehicle Dynamics and Safety”
M. S. Ramaiah School of Advanced Studies (MSRSAS) is organizing a three day seminar on “Vehicle Dynamics and Safety” on 17th, 18th & 19th December 2009. The e-brochure of the seminar is enclosed herewith for your kind reference. The contents will be extremely beneficial to the practicing engineers, professionals, academic staff and students. It is requested to kindly circulate the Seminar brochure among your staff and kindly consider nominating few staff members / students from your organization / institution / division / group to register and attend this three day seminar. We do hope that the Seminar will provide a valuable forum for interaction with the domain experts, helping the participants in their professional growth.
Thanking you and with warm regards,
S.Vijaykumar
Manager - Academic Relations

Three Day Seminar on
"Vehicle Dynamics and Safety"
Organized by
M. S. Ramaiah School of Advanced Studies
Date: 17th, 18th & 19th December 2009
(Thursday, Friday & Saturday)
Venue: M. S. Ramaiah School of Advanced Studies, Bangalore
About the Seminar:
Be it a Formula Race, Car Race or a Motor Bike Race enthusiast building a vehicle or a family person looking for a family transport, few aspects of the vehicle play a major role in the selection of the vehicle. These are stability, maneuverability and safety. The design aspects for these are based on Vehicle Dynamics and design principles for Safety. To give an in-depth knowledge in these two areas, Vehicle Dynamics and Safety, a three day seminar has been planned for engineering students, vehicle users and practicing engineers.
Vehicle Dynamics is concerned about the response of the vehicle to the forces that act at four palm sized patches between the tyres and the road. The response metrics are performance, handling and ride and a vehicle is designed and built to meet theses metrics. Study of Safety, as related to vehicles, concerns itself with the potential impacts between two vehicles and/or between occupant or pedestrian and a vehicle, and resulting damage/injury to the vehicles and humans.
On the first two days Vehicle Dynamics metrics will be defined and analyzed and on the last day safety aspects will be dealt with. In Vehicle Dynamics, the topics that will be covered are Fundamentals of Load Transfer, Tyre Dynamics, Acceleration and Braking Performance, Ride, Suspension Dynamics and Vehicle Handling. Presentation on Safety will focus on the phenomena and Physics of collision, resulting forces and human kinematics, injury biomechanics, management of crash energy and forces through structural and system designs.
Objectives:
• To explain fundamental governing principles of Vehicle Dynamics and Safety design
• To elucidate the physics involved in vehicle dynamics and collision
• To demonstrate the use of simulation tools replicate these phenomena
• To discuss practices for improved design for improved ride, handling and safety
Who should attend?
· Engineering Students, Faculties
· Automotive design engineers : Ride comfort, NVH, Handling, Occupant & Pedestrian safety, Structural design, Interior design
