This textbook covers handling and performance of both road and race cars. Mathematical models of vehicles are developed always paying attention to state the relevant assumptions and to provide explanations for each step. This innovative approach provides a deep, yet simple, analysis of the dynamics of vehicles. The reader will soon achieve a clear understanding of the subject, which will be of great help both in dealing with the challenges of designing and testing new vehicles and in tackling new research topics.

Produktbeschreibung
This textbook covers handling and performance of both road and race cars. Mathematical models of vehicles are developed always paying attention to state the relevant assumptions and to provide explanations for each step. This innovative approach provides a deep, yet simple, analysis of the dynamics of vehicles. The reader will soon achieve a clear understanding of the subject, which will be of great help both in dealing with the challenges of designing and testing new vehicles and in tackling new research topics.

The book deals with several relevant topics in vehicle dynamics that are not discussed elsewhere and this new edition includes thoroughly revised chapters, with new developments, and many worked exercises.

Praise for the previous edition:

Great book! It has changed drastically our approach on many topics. We are now using part of its theory on a daily basis to constantly improve ride and handling performances.

--- Antonino Pizzuto, Head of Chassis Development Group at Hyundai Motor Europe Technical Center

Astonishingly good! Everything is described in a very compelling and complete way. Some parts use a different approach than other books.

--- Andrea Quintarelli, Automotive Engineer

Autorenporträt
Massimo Guiggiani is professor of Applied Mechanics at the Università di Pisa, Italy, where he also teaches Vehicle Dynamics in the MS degree program in Vehicle Engineering.
Rezensionen
"Guiggiani's book is an excellent contribution to the comprehension of vehicle dynamics both for undergraduate students and experts in the field. It also has the merit to propose new concepts and interpretations ... despite 50 years of books on vehicle dynamics. A second value of the book is its rigorous approach, which does not leave nothing either to mere intuition or for granted." (Francesco Biral, Meccanica, 2016)
"The book is a very thorough and painstakingly developed dynamic analysis of components, assemblies, vehicles, and their design to provide optimal handling, cornering, braking, comfort and road holding. ... The Science of Vehicle Dynamics serves as a good textbook for automotive engineering students and a good reference for automotive engineers." (Jon W. Mooney, Noise Control Engineering Journal, Vol. 62 (3), May-June, 2014)
