Tire and Vehicle Dynamics

In this new paperback edition of Tire and Vehicle Dynamics , theory is supported by practical and experimental evidence. Pacejka offers both basic and advanced explanations of the dynamic performance. The book shows the way in which the vehicle is in vehicle. Those who work in any industry and have both extremely relevant and useful.

* Written by a world expert in dynamic dynamics
* Covers both basic and advanced modeling exercises and exercises, including case studies
* Indispensable for any engineer working in vehicle system
