Performance Models:
I began developing MATLAB models to to predict vehicle performance as part of two automotive engineering courses taught by Dr. Krishan Bhatia at Rowan university. These models were used to predict longitudinal performance, fuel economy, and handling characteristics. These models were derived with significant help from Dr. Bhatia and Alexandra Gobeler. Detailed breakdown and model updates will come in the subsections of this site. Please continue scrolling for the overview:
