Book History of Electric Cars

Download or read book History of Electric Cars written by Nigel Burton and published by Crowood. This book was released on 2013-06-30 with total page 512 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One hundred years ago electric cars were the most popular automobiles in the world. In the late nineteenth century and at the start of the twentieth century, they outsold every other type of car. And yet, within a couple of decades of the start of the twentieth century, the electric car had vanished. Thousands of battery-powered cars disappeared from the streets, replaced by the internal combustion engine, and their place in the history of the automobile was quietly erased. A century later, electric cars are making a comeback. Fears over pollution and global warming have forced manufacturers to reconsider the electric concept. A History of Electric Cars presents for the first time the full story of electric cars and their hybrid cousins. It examines how and why electric cars failed the first time - and why today's car manufacterers must learn the lessons of the past if they are to avoid repeating previous mistakes all over again. The book examines in detail: Early vehicles such as the Lohner-Porsche petrol-electric hybrid of 1901; Key figures in the history of the electric car development such as Henry Ford; Sir Clive Sinclair's plans to build a number of electric vehicles, designed to sit alongside the Sinclair C5; The return of the electric technology to vehicles as diverse as the NASA Lunar Rover, commuting vehicles and supercars; Future developments in electric cars. For the first time the full story of electric cars and their hybrids are examined.The hidden past of the electric automobile is uncovered and its future developments are discussed. Superbly illustrated with 300 colour photographs, many of which are rare and original sketch designs. Nigel Burton has written and lectured on cars and automotive history for more than twenty years.

Book The Story of Automotive Electronics  1970

Download or read book The Story of Automotive Electronics 1970 written by George Whalen and published by . This book was released on 2021-05-11 with total page 334 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When this book was written, transistors were just in their teens! The Apollo moon-walk was still news. TV was over the air. And cars were mostly mechanical. The idea that electronics would be "the next big thing" in new-tech automotive engineering was just coming in for a landing. 1970 was over half a century ago. Brilliant engineers wanted to make future cars better, improve performance and be safer. Electronics brought exciting solutions and possibilities. The global euphoria that came with America's sensational, successful Apollo 11 moon-landing on July 20, 1969 created an expectation that "technology" could solve any problem and build a path to any future that we can envision. So, the auto industry fairly buzzed with ideas and predictions... like cars, one day, will drive themselves...that they will do our spoken bidding...act to protect us and prevent accidents...entertain us...give us instant guidance and communication... and much, much more. The reality is closer today. We got to today impelled by the richness of yesterday's ideas, discoveries and technology. Tomorrow will prove even more mind-bending, as 5G technology, robotics, AI and more changes everything! In fact, here in the 21st century, ideas that seemed like science fiction in 1970 now seem quite tame. The reality is proving vastly more far-reaching than the dreams of yesterday!Wonder how long it will take us to get to the amazing world of 5G and driverless vehicles? Want to know a bit about the history of car devices, how-it-works, stories of invention, and get practical information you can use right now? Are you curious about how it began? Want to compare the "state of the art" then, to where we are heading now? Start here. I'm fond of saying: "If you want to see how far we've come, you must know how it began."

Book The evolution of automotive technology

Download or read book The evolution of automotive technology written by Gijs Mom and published by SAE International. This book was released on 2023-05-17 with total page 361 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The idea of "understanding the present through its history" is based on two insights. First, it helps to know where a technology comes from: what were its predecessors, how did they evolve as a result of the continuous efforts to solve theoretical and practical problems, who were crucial in their emergence, and which cultural differences made them develop into divergent families of artifacts? Second, and closely related to the first insight, how does a certain technology or system fit into its societal context, its culture of mobility, its engineering culture, its culture of car driving, its alternatives, its opponents? Only thus, by studying its prehistory and its socio-cultural context, can we acquire a true 'grasp' of a technology. The Evolution of Automotive Technology: A Handbook, Second Edition covers one and a quarter century of the automobile, conceived as a cultural history of its technology, aimed at engineering students and all those who wish to have a concise introduction into the basics of automotive technology and its long-term development. (ISBN:9781468605976 ISBN:9781468605969 ISBN:9781468605983 DOI:10.4271/9781468605976) 2nd Edition.

Book The Evolution of Automotive Technology

Download or read book The Evolution of Automotive Technology written by Gijs Mom and published by SAE International. This book was released on 2014-11-24 with total page 390 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book covers one and a quarter century of the automobile, conceived as a cultural history of its technology, aimed at engineering students and all those who wish to have a concise introduction into the basics of automotive technology and its long-term development . Its approach is systemic and includes the behavior of drivers, producers, nonusers, victims, and other "stakeholders" as well as the discourse around mobility. Nowadays, students of innovation prefer the term co-evolution, emphasizing the parallel and mutually dependent development of technology and society. This acknowledges the importance of contingency and of the impact of the past upon the present, the very reason why The Evolution of Automotive Technology: A Handbook looks at car technology from a long-term perspective. Often we will conclude that the innovation was in the (re)arrangement of existing technologies. Since its beginnings, car manufacturers have brought a total of 1 billion automobiles to the market. We are currently witnessing an explosion toward the second billion. Looking back, we can see this history evolve through five distinctive phases: • Emergence (1880–1917) • Persistence (1917–1940) • Exuberance (1945–1973) • Doom (1973–2000) • Confusion (2001–present) The Evolution of Automotive Technology: A Handbook helps us understand how these phases impacted society and, in turn, shows us how car technology was influenced by car users themselves.
