Vehicle Dynamics and Control van Rajesh Rajamani is an English-language textbook that focuses on the dynamics and control of vehicles. This reference work is intended for professionals and researchers in the automotive sector and technical education programs.
The book covers various vehicle control systems and the associated dynamic models that are essential for the development of these systems. Topics include cruise control, ABS, adaptive cruise control, electronic stability control, rollover stability, engine control, various suspension systems, tire-road friction, rollover prevention, and hybrid electric vehicles. The models are simple enough for control applications while also detailed enough to accurately capture dynamic properties.
This second edition has been expanded with chapters on roll behavior, rollover prevention, and hybrid vehicles. It is a valuable resource for those working on vehicle dynamics and control system design, both in industry and within university education programs.
The book aligns with fields such as Mechanical Engineering and Automation and is part of the Mechanical Engineering Series.
