Lateral Dynamics and Stability Analysis of Electric Scooters
The rapid diffusion of electric scooters as a means of urban transportation has raised significant concerns regarding their dynamic stability and rider safety, particularly in lateral maneuvers such as cornering, obstacle avoidance, and low-speed balancing. Despite their widespread use, the lateral dynamics of electric scooters remain less investigated than those of motorcycles or bicycles, especially

Study of the effect of different vehicle models on the lap time optimization
This thesis focuses on the study of the influence of different vehicle dynamic models on lap time optimization, with particular attention to how model fidelity affects optimal control solutions and predicted vehicle performance. Lap time optimization is a central topic in motorsport engineering and high-performance vehicle development, where numerical simulation and optimal control techniques are
