Braking of Road Vehicles, Second Edition includes updated and new subject matter related to the technological advances of road vehicles such as hybrid and electric vehicles and "self-driving" and autonomous vehicles. New material to this edition includes root causes, guidelines, experimental and measurement techniques, brake NVH identification and data analysis, CAE and dynamic modelling, advances in rotor and stator materials, manufacturing methods, changes to European and US legislation since 2014, recent developments in technology, methods and analysis, and new and updated case studies.
This new edition will continue to be of interest to engineers and technologists in automotive and road transport industries, automotive engineering students and instructors, and professional staff in vehicle-related legislational, legal, military, security and investigative functions.
- Completely revised to keep up-to-date with the demands and requirements of a new generation of road vehicles
- Includes new chapters on Autonomous and Regenerative Braking, Brake-by-Wire and Electronic Braking Systems
- Addresses issues such as prediction of brake performance, component stresses and temperatures, and durability
- Discusses operational problems such as noise and judder, variable torque generation and variable deceleration
Professional automotive engineers working in brakes design, as well as automotive engineering graduate students. Safety and accident investigation specialists, Project and Technical managers in road vehicle design and operation, Aerospace engineers
