商品簡介
For this second edition, the author, an automotive engineering consultant to the motor racing industry, takes into account recent sporting regulations that limit data acquisition, stressing the importance of using data more efficiently. The book details methods for understanding the data recorded by a racecar's data acquisition system and explains how to use the data to improve vehicle performance. After early chapters on hardware and software needs and trends, the rest of the book's chapters explain how to analyze data on areas such as acceleration, braking, gearing, wheel loads, shock absorbers, and analyzing the driver. There is also material on simulation tools, using the data acquisition system for race strategy, and data analysis using metrics. The final chapter offers an introduction to measurement. This second edition reflects technological developments in data recording since 2008. It contains three new chapters on tire performance, metric-driven analysis, and racing track data. Illustrations include color photos, images, and graphs. Annotation c2014 Ringgold, Inc., Portland, OR (protoview.com)
