Autorenporträt

Massimo Guiggiani is professor of Applied Mechanics at the Università di Pisa, Italy, where he also teaches Vehicle Dynamics in the MSc degree program in Automotive Engineering.

He has achieved important results also in other fields, such as Guiggiani's algorithm for the evaluation of singular integrals in the Boundary Element Method (1990-1992, ASME Journal of Applied Mechanics), and the invariant approach for gear generation (2005-2007, Mechanism and Machine Theory).

Introduction.- Mechanics of the Wheel with Tire.- Vehicle Model for Handling and Performance.- Braking Performance.

Rezensionen

"Guiggiani's book is an excellent contribution to the comprehension of vehicle dynamics both for undergraduate students and experts in the field. It also has the merit to propose new concepts and interpretations ... despite 50 years of books on vehicle dynamics. A second value of the book is its rigorous approach, which does not leave nothing either to mere intuition or for granted." (Francesco Biral, Meccanica, 2016)
"The book is a very thorough and painstakingly developed dynamic analysis of components, assemblies, vehicles, and their design to provide optimal handling, cornering, braking, comfort and road holding. ... The Science of Vehicle Dynamics serves as a good textbook for automotive engineering students and a good reference for automotive engineers." (Jon W. Mooney, Noise Control Engineering Journal, Vol. 62 (3), May-June, 2014)
