dc.description	The main goal of this project is to stydy the Influence of the aerodynamics configurations of a Formula Student car (wings, downforce distribution, etc.) on the dynamic performance of the vehicle. In order to obtain these objectives, a software will be developed, it will simulate the performance of the car at any point of the circuit in any dynamic event taking into account the different aerodynamics parameters.
dc.description.abstract	This study is the first step in a development of multi-solid Lap Time Simulation programcalled ecoR-VirtualSimulator that establishes the basis of a modular software easily im-provable with the purpose of studying the effects of not only the aerodynamic set-upbut also the dynamic set-up.This software is a complex, non-linear, 18 degrees of freedom model with numerous layersof iterative solvers to deal with real tire and vehicle data. Using quasi-steady trimmedsolutions that are generated at each section of the track and obtaining a listing of morethan 30 parameters at each section, enabling the possibility of guiding an engineer onchoosing the single-seater set-up
