DESCRIPTION:McLaren’s latest supercar\, the 720S\, launched at the Genev
 a Motor Show in March this year\, came with a new suspension control algor
 ithm which has received positive press reports including mention of a rese
 arch collaboration with Cambridge University.  The concept for the algorit
 hm was developed in a PhD dissertation by a Caius graduate student\, Panos
  Brezas (2008).   The talk will explain the engineering background for the
  work\, the development of ideas from the concept stage\, the mathematical
  and control-theoretic basis for the algorithm\, and the testing and devel
 opment work on production prototypes.  The talk will be accessible to a ge
 neral audience.
