Description / Abstract:
Preface
This book provides a fundamental understanding of how physical laws, human factor considerations, and design choices interact to determine the ride, handling, braking, and accelerating behavior of road vehicles used for personal transportation. It presents the dynamics of road vehicle systems from a perspective that unifies the treatment of the causes of physical events with a treatment of the reasons for physical functions. Emphasis is placed on the observation that driver vehicle system behavior is constrained by physical law, but the driver's objectives and the designer's goals ultimately will determine how the system is utilized and configured.
