6. Analysis of the Base Wake on Passenger Vehicles
Abstract : Car manufacturers are presented by a continuous increase in fuel prices and by ever more strict legislations regarding CO2-emissions. Decreasing the driving resistance and hence the fuel consumption of their vehicles helps to improvetheir market share. READ MORE

7. Analysis of the Unsteady Flow Field of a Passenger Vehicle
Abstract : Political legislation and consumer requirements for a sustainable society require that vehicle manufacturers focus on reduced fuel consumption and lower emissions. Areduction in the overall energy consumption can be directly linked to a decrease of the driving resistance, where the aerodynamic drag significantly contributes at velocities above 70km/h. READ MORE

8. Subjective perception and prediction model of vehicle stability under aerodynamic excitations
Abstract : The current automotive era is moving towards electrified vehicle propulsion. As a result, an energy efficient vehicle design becomes one of the top priorities. From an aerodynamics point of view, the vehicle should be more streamlined for minimal aerodynamic drag. READ MORE

9. Predictive model of perceived driving stability at high speeds under aerodynamic excitations
Abstract : The automotive industry is continuously advancing towards more energy-efficient vehicle designs. Streamlined vehicles have low aerodynamic drag but have the potential to be unstable when exposed to external excitations such as unsteady aerodynamic forces created by the flow of air around them.

10. Large-Eddy Simulation for Computing the Flow Around Vehicles
Abstract : The feasibility of the use of large-eddy simulation (LES) in external vehicle aerodynamics is investigated. The computational requirement for LES of the full size car at road conditions is beyond the capability of computers in the near future. Since LES cannot be used for quantitative prediction of this flow, i.e. READ MORE
