The transcendent role
of vehicle dynamics
Jennifer Bastiaan, Ph.D., who was elected
as the Vice Chair of the SAE Materials,
Modeling, and Testing Committee in June
2022, granted Update an interview for this
special section on vehicle dynamics and
NVH.
in what specific area of vehicle dynamics
do you work, and what do you find most
interesting about that work?
I am an associate professor of mechanical
engineering at Kettering University, and
vehicle dynamics is the focus of my work in
teaching, research, and service. At
Kettering University, I teach the course
MECH-646, " Advanced Vehicle Dynamics, "
which is for graduate students. This course
was created and developed by me. I am the
sole instructor for the course.
My research interests in vehicle dynamics
are broad. I am involved in both physical
experimentation and mathematical
modeling of ground vehicle dynamics. I am
also engaged in research of tire mechanics,
which is a field that is closely related to
vehicle dynamics.
On the service side, I am an associate
editor of the SAE International Journal of
Vehicle Dynamics, Stability, and NVH
(JNVH). I am the lead organizer for three
SAE WCX conference sessions. The first is
about vehicle dynamics (M210), the second

is about tire mechanics (M208), and the
third is a student session for SAE Collegiate
Design Series (CDS) teams (MSEC101). As
part of this organizing work, I get to review
and provide feedback to many vehicle
dynamics journal articles and conference
papers.
At Kettering, I am faculty advisor to the
Formula SAE team and faculty co-advisor
to four other CDS teams. As a faculty
advisor, there are many opportunities to
teach CDS students and help them
optimize their competition vehicles from a
vehicle dynamics perspective.
Vehicle dynamics is captivating because
it is a way of modeling and understanding
the behavior of a ground vehicle - which is
