en Limba Engleză Hardback – 29 mar 2023
The focus of the book is on the driving dynamics of racing vehicles. The interaction of the tyre, the aerodynamics, of the chassis and the limited slip differential specific to racing vehicles is dealt with. A chapter on the basics of vehicle dynamics makes it possible to get started with this topic even without prior automotive engineering training. A historical review and a consideration of the essential safety aspects create an understanding of higher-level requirements, which are specified, for example, by the technical regulations.

Notă biografică

Dr. Ing. Lars Frömmig has been involved in the driving dynamics and chassis tuning of production passenger cars for more than fifteen years. As a development engineer at Volkswagen AG, he was initially responsible in various roles for the tuning of controlled front axle differential locks and electromechanical steering systems as well as for the driving dynamics of controlled all-wheel drive systems. Today he is responsible for vehicle dynamics and tyre development at the chassis development department of Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles. As an honorary lecturer, he gives the lecture "Racing Vehicles" at the Institute of Automotive Engineering at the Technical University of Braunschweig.

Textul de pe ultima copertă

This textbook clearly conveys the basic principles of vehicle dynamics that are required for the development and optimization of racing vehicles. The focus is on the interaction of tyres, aerodynamics, chassis, differential locks and the vehicle structure. The performance-determining properties of various components, such as the wing profiles, the underbody, the suspension, the steering or braking system, are described in detail. A historical review, an overview of the key data of the technical regulations, an explanation of various structural designs, and a discussion of the safety aspects of motorsport create an understanding of higher-level requirements for the design of racing vehicles. The basic knowledge acquired with this work provides an entry point for engineers and engineering students who are involved in motorsport - as designers, data analysts or race engineers - or who want to deepen their knowledge in the field of vehicle dynamics and chassis development.

This book is a translation of an original German edition. The translation was done with the help of artificial intelligence (machine translation by the service DeepL.com). A subsequent human revision was done primarily in terms of content, so that the book will read stylistically differently from a conventional translation.
