Vehicle Dynamics and Control: Advanced Methodologies features the latest information on advanced dynamics and vehicle motion control, including a comprehensive overview of passenger cars and articulated vehicles, fundamentals, and emerging developments. This book provides a unified, balanced treatment of advanced approaches to vehicle dynamics and control. It proceeds to cover advanced vehicle control strategies, such as identification and estimation, adaptive nonlinear control, new robust control techniques, and soft computing. Other topics, such as the integrated control of passenger cars and articulated heavy vehicles, are also discussed with a significant amount of material on engineering methodology, simulation, modeling, and mathematical verification of the systems. This book discusses and solves new challenges in vehicle dynamics and control problems and helps graduate students in the field of automotive engineering as well as researchers and engineers seeking theoretical/practical design procedures in automotive control systems.
