Course objectives

Get familiar with the role of vehicles and mobile machines in the traffic and transportation with classification and grouping, and acquire basic engineering knowledge about the vehicle subsystems, structure and their physical laws.

Course content
Lectures

Main procedures of vehicle movements. Energy basis of main operations, energy sources of vehicle powertrain and transformation methods of the energy in the different vehicle types. Active and passive forces acting on the vehicle, control of vehicle movement, dynamic and stability situations. Systems of vehicle driveline, direct drive, wheel drive, chain drive, propeller drive. Elements of driveline, clutches, gears, torque transmissions, axle drives, suspensions, structural and operational analysis of brake systems. Dynamic conditions of moving on turning path and the resulted structural requirements. Construction and theoretical requirements of steering, characteristic types. Role of differential and end-transmission, construction and operation analysis. Basis of vehicle suspension systems, spring and damping systems, suspension types, characteristic constructions. Dynamic of vehicle deceleration and braking, resulted constructional requirements, system and operation analysis of characteristic and modern solutions. Main considerations construction of vehicle chassis and body, additional components and systems and the main tendencies of development.

Seminars

Basic calculations related to vehicle subsystems and vehicle dynamics using essential phyisical laws and relationships.

Acquired competences

Requirements, evaluation and grading
Mid-term study requirements

During the semester, one 2 examination will be written, which can be corrected or made up once. A satisfactory result in the final examination is a prerequisite for obtaining a satisfactory mid-semester grade. The mid-term mark is the average of the two examination mark.

Exam requirements

Generative AI usage

1st position: The use of GAI tools is not permitted when solving tasks. This means that GAI tools cannot be used when creating or solving formative or summative assessment elements, and the use of generative AI constitutes academic misconduct. The use of AI tools for language and spelling checking is not subject to the complete ban under the 1st position.

Study aids, laboratory background

Presentaions of the lectures, examples and exercise materials shared via Teams.
