About the Lab

At DExTR Lab, we are interested in understanding the dynamics governing a vehicle, the interactions between the automotive system and pavement, and the human body. Research focuses on the synergistic integration of mathematical modelling, numerical simulations, and experimental techniques. Our laboratory is dedicated to developing advanced technologies that enhance safety, efficiency, and overall performance, thereby contributing to the industry and the nation.
