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 Automotive Milestones written by Robert L. Norton and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a general interest trade book that describes the development of automotive technology and engineering from the start of the industry before 1900 to the present day. It explains how various systems and elements in the automobile work in layman's terms, without resorting to mathematics, and highlights the keymilestones in the historical development of automotive technology. All photos and illustrations are in full color. The intended audience is older teens to adults of any age who are interested in the subject and may be involved in it as a hobby. Sometimes referred to as "gearheads" or "motorheads," they form a huge market. Over the years many of the author's engineering students were in this category, and he often would meet with on-campus car clubs to explain the way things automotive worked, being careful to damp down or eliminate any complicated mathematics, as he does in this book. An Internet search found only titles that are either "hard-engineering oriented" -- such as publications from the Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE) -- or mere compendiums of dates. Books in the latter category note the milestones but without hardly any explanation at all of how these developments actually work in a technical sense - which is the aim of this book.
