Presentation

The Mathematical Modeling Laboratory is located in the building of the Faculty of Automotive Engineering, Mechatronics and Mechanics, body E, first floor, room E13b and is used for the applications to the disciplines of the department.

The laboratory has a usable area of ​​50 square meters, 15 workstations for students equipped with high-performance laptops and internet router for students with individual laptops.

The laboratory is also used for research activities by teachers and PhD students in research contracts and grants, but also to students in the Formula Student Team.

Object of activity

The Mathematical Modeling Laboratory serves the bachelor's and master's degree study cycle for performing applied work with students. They can develop virtual models for simulating the operation of vehicles and their systems.

To carry out the application work, students have access to software products provided on the basis of the university partnership by the following companies: Microsoft, AVL List, IPG Automotive, MathWorks.
