Designing an automotive suspension system is an interesting and challenging task for everyone. A good suspension system should have satisfactory goals such as  keeping the vehicle wheels in contact with the road, good load carrying capacity, alongside providing comfort to the driver and passengers, avoiding road shocks, free of vibrations, etc., 

Course on Automotive Suspension System Modeling & Simulation specifically focuses on 100% hands-on to build the numerical model using the Scilab-Xcos and analyzing the suspension system for various road excitations.
