Vehicle Dynamics: Theory and Application is written as a textbook for senior undergraduate and first year graduate students in mechanical engineering. It provides both fundamental and advanced topics on handling, ride, components, and behavior of vehicles. Coverage includes front, rear, and four wheel steering systems, as well as the advantages and disadvantages of different steering schemes. Individual sections devoted to handling, ride, and components will be beneficial to students as future automotive designers. This book includes a detailed review of practical design considerations and a number of practical examples and exercises.
