Statistical Analysis on Aerodynamics of Passenger Vehicles

This thesis aims to use statistical methods to analyze wind tunnel data generated in automotive aerodynamics testing to understand the properties of aerodynamic force and pressure in a vehicle's working environment. The data used for analysis are visualized, clustered and finally analyzed for Granger causality to see whether a causal link exists between different variables. Then, the pressure measurements taken from the scaled vehicle model is visualized with heat maps and further quantified with K-means and K-medoids clustering. Using the reduced-dimension pressure data derived from cluster analysis, combined with aerodynamic force data, a VAR model is fitted, and the causal relationships between the variables in the data set is explored using Granger causality testing.
