Understanding the forces and motions on a vehicle (both theoretical aspects, like basic equations of motion, and practical ones, like tire mechanics and human vehicle control) is integral in the design and development of all vehicles. Masato Abe's \u003ci\u003eVehicle Handling Dynamics\u003c\/i\u003e, Second Edition, provides comprehensive coverage of vehicle dynamics, enabling readers to visualize and invent better vehicles.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ci\u003e \u003c\/i\u003e\u003cp\u003eVehicle Handling Dynamics begins with an overview of the fundamental theories of vehicle handling dynamics, based on simple equations of motion. The book then extends to driver-vehicle behavior, handling quality and active vehicle motion control. In addition, this new edition includes two new chapters. Chapter 9 covers vehicle motion control for electric vehicles, crucial in this new era of automobiles. Chapter 12 studies the classic issue of model-based handling quality evaluations (challenging the traditional dependencies on test drivers for determining a vehicle's drivability). \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eWritten by one of the most distinguished authorities in the area, \u003ci\u003eVehicle Handling Dynamics\u003c\/i\u003e, Second Edition, lends equal and careful consideration to both theory and application, providing valuable insights for students of and engineers working in vehicle dynamics and control.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Masato Abe\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0081003900\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780081003909\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Butterworth-Heinemann\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/22\/2015\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 322\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.05lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.73d","brand":"Masato Abe","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43946202464511,"sku":"9780081003909","price":121.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_8a57f14e-0568-49db-903e-58fb3ab89005.jpg?v=1681512009","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/vehicle-handling-dynamics-masato-abe-9780081003909","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
