The objective of this dissertation is to set forth a complete overview and documentation of suspension kinematics design and simulation for a Formula Student prototype race car, serving as a guide to future members of Squadra Corse PoliTO’s Vehicle Dynamics Division and marking the end of my work for the team. Following an introduction to Formula Student competitions and the team, the implied necessary theoretical background on tires, vehicle dynamics and suspension systems is described. Suspension geometry fundamentals are then discussed and are followed by an overview on dampers, their testing and simulation. Later, suspension tuning and its influence on vehicle dynamics, control and stability is discussed after an introduction to Yaw Moment Diagrams and their computation.
