The Dynamics of Vehicles on Roads and on Tracks de Willumeit

The Dynamics of Vehicles on Roads and on Tracks: Proceedings of the Iavsd Symposium, 6th Technical University, Berlin, Sept. 1979

Willumeit

This book is an outcome of the seventh IAVSD Symposium on the Dynamics of Vehicles on Roads and Tracks was held at Cambridge, England. The theme of the Symposium was the mathematical modelling of vehicle dynamics with an emphasis on the problems due to interaction between vehicle and road or track.
