Download or read book Mathematics in the Automotive Industry written by James R. Smith and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 1992 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first of its kind in the UK, the IMA conference on Mathematics in the Automotive Industry was intended to expose typical theoretical problems in this industry and the role that mathematics can play in their solution. The selected papers presented here emphasize the involvement ofengineering science and mathematical modelling in solving problems which arise from complex engineering situations. The automotive industry is concerned crucially with highly practical questions that need answers quickly. The analysis of vehice dynamics and control by automatic software generation and using algebraic manipulation codes is reviewed. Problems of current interest discussed include applying control theory to four-wheel steer, active and semi-active suspensions, continuously variable transmission, anddynamometer control. Further chapters review the modelling of acoustical phenomena in the context of automotive noise due to the engine and tyres. Others discuss the digital computer-induced changes in how the stylist's conception of a car is translated into actual panels and the mathematical definition of surfacefeatures such as pockets, channels, and ribs. Later, there are chapters on the accurate and realistic prediction of air-flow rate, temperature, and flow characteristics to aid engine design; the simulation of flame propagation and knock; and using component models to predict vehicle heating and cooling. The final four chapters discuss finite element analysis of anisotropic deformation and its use in, for example, analysing pressing or stamping operations; the sophisticated thermomechanical modelling of electrical components; and using well-tried algorithms to predict fatigue, and thus producenon-failing components.

Download or read book Why Math written by R.D. Driver and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 1994-12-19 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This text aims to show that mathematics is useful to virtually everyone. And it seeks to accomplish this by offering the reader plenty of practice in elementary mathematical computations motivated by real-world problems. The prerequisite for this book is a little algebra and geometry-nothing more than entrance requirements at most colleges. I hope that users-especially those who "don't like math"-will complete the course with greater confidence in their ability to solve practical problems (without seeking help from someone who is "good at math"). Here is a sampler of some of the problems to be encountered: I. If a U. S. dollar were worth 1. 15 Canadian dollars, what would a Canadian dollar be worth in U. S. money? 2. If the tax rates are reduced 5% one year and then 10% in each of the next 2 years (as they were between 1981 and 1984), what is the overall reduction for the 3 years? 3. An automobile cooling system contains 10 liters ofa mixture of water and antifreeze which is 25% antifreeze. How much of this should be drained out and replaced with pure antifreeze so that the resulting 10 liters will be 40% antifreeze? 4. If you drive halfway at 30 mph and the rest of the distance at 50 mph, what is your average speed for the entire trip? 5. A tank storing solar heated water stands unmolested in a room having an approximately constant temperature of 80°F.

Download or read book How Math Explains the World written by D. Stein and published by Harper Collins. This book was released on 2009-03-17 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In How Math Explains the World, mathematician Stein reveals how seemingly arcane mathematical investigations and discoveries have led to bigger, more world-shaking insights into the nature of our world. In the four main sections of the book, Stein tells the stories of the mathematical thinkers who discerned some of the most fundamental aspects of our universe. From their successes and failures, delusions, and even duels, the trajectories of their innovations—and their impact on society—are traced in this fascinating narrative. Quantum mechanics, space-time, chaos theory and the workings of complex systems, and the impossibility of a "perfect" democracy are all here. Stein's book is both mind-bending and practical, as he explains the best way for a salesman to plan a trip, examines why any thought you could have is imbedded in the number p , and—perhaps most importantly—answers one of the modern world's toughest questions: why the garage can never get your car repaired on time. Friendly, entertaining, and fun, How Math Explains the World is the first book by one of California's most popular math teachers, a veteran of both "math for poets" and Princeton's Institute for Advanced Studies. And it's perfect for any reader wanting to know how math makes both science and the world tick.
