Concept Development of a Car

FSI-QA0 Acad. year: 2023/2024 Winter semester

Mastering the process logic and continuity in the development of a new vehicle from the first task to define the prototype. Simultaneous consideration of manufacturability, material concept, technical requirements, standards and functionality.

Language of instruction

Czech

Number of ECTS credits

3

Supervisor

Ing. Jan Vančura, Ph.D.

Department

Institute of Automotive Engineering

Entry knowledge

Knowledge of 3D CAD modeling and basics of dynamics.

Rules for evaluation and completion of the course

The final grade is given by the overall evaluation of the exercises and the exam.

The exam is realized in the form of a test or an online test.


Solve of two problems and answers on questions.

Aims

To acquaint students with the technical procedures for the development of modern vehicles in the concept design phase.
Students will acquire ability to design a new vehicle concept according to the assignment, understanding the context and the collision between the individual requirements for the new vehicle. Ability to design partial design nodes of the concept with regard to production technology, aerodynamics, design and structural properties.
