Driveline Systems of Ground Vehicles - Theory and Design

Informationen zum Autor Vladimir V. Vantsevich is a tenured full professor in mechanical engineering and the director of the Master of Science in Mechatronic Systems Engineering Program at Lawrence Technological University. Alexandr F. Andreev and Viachaslau I. Kabanau are both associate professors in the Tractor Engineering Department at Belarus National Technical University. Klappentext This book presents analytical and experimental methods and achievements in the design of mechanical and mechatronic driveline systems. These include power dividing units, such as symmetric and non-symmetric, open and lockable differentials, various limited slip differentials, and no-spins and viscous clutches. Addressing vehicle dynamics and performance issues, the authors propose an approach to designing vehicle driveline systems based on determining optimum power distributions to the drive wheels. The text also provides logic control algorithms to control vehicle power dividing units and designs of torque/power managing devices. Each chapter includes problems.
