Vehicle Dynamics, Stability, and Control

By Dean Karnopp and Dean C. Karnopp

The second edition of a bestseller, this book applies basic dynamics and control concepts to vehicle dynamics and stability. It covers a wide range of vehicles: autos and two-wheeled vehicles, railroad locomotives and cars, and aerospace vehicles. The author presents and develops mathematical models with numerous worked examples, develops careful explanations to explain and demonstrate the equations of motion, and provides applied engineering design and control methods for practical applications. Bond graph methods are covered in an appendix.
