Workload:
Workload of student for successfully completing the course. Each ECTS credit represents 30 working hours. These are the combined effort of face-to-face time, post-processing the subject of the lecture, exercises and preparation for the exam.

The total workload is distributed on the semester (01.04.-30.09. during the summer term, 01.10.-31.03. during the winter term).
60 class hours (= 45 clock hours) over a 15-week period.
The total student study time is 180 hours (equivalent to 6 ECTS credits).
There are therefore 135 hours available for class preparation and follow-up work and exam preparation.
Recommended prerequisites (modules):
FT01 Engineering Mathematics I

Learning outcomes:
After successfully completing this module, students will be familiar with the function, design, calculation and layout of vehicle systems for lateral and vertical dynamics (chassis, steering and braking systems) and their interaction in the overall vehicle based on the current state of the art.
 
 This also includes the different model assumptions for vehicle dynamics.
 
Students will be able to:
- understand the technical-physical relationships inherent in the way that vehicle systems function and the consequences for lateral and vertical dynamics.
  
- deal with questions regarding technical changes to vehicle systems
- implement solutions in practice.
