## Description

Fundamentals of Vehicle Dynamics [Gillespie, Thomas D] on desertcart.com. *FREE* shipping on qualifying offers. Fundamentals of Vehicle Dynamics

Review: A solid foundation - My background is in computer engineering. As such, I have a basic understanding of kinematics, but approached this book with little knowledge of physics as specifically applied to vehicles. I found this book to be a perfect first step into the field. It picked up essentially where my knowledge left off and provided solid coverage of the topics discussed. Due to the nature of the book--an introductory text--simplifications often had to be made; in these cases the simplifications were pointed out, often with references to publications covering the areas more fully. Furthermore, I felt that all topics were evenly covered--no one got undue attention. Basically, the book was just what I was looking for. My only significant pet peeves are the use of English-system measurements (I am more comfortable with metric), and a few cases of unexplained 'magic numbers' in formulas (it took me a minute to realize that 57.3 is the number of degrees in a radian). And plot and character development were pretty thin (grin).
Review: Happiness - I like books like this because they help me gain a better understanding of the materials needed to withstand the dynamics machines experience. Understanding the mechanics and dynamics of a technology enable better discernment in determining sustainable materials to use for certain parts of the technology. This book provides a straightforward and easy to follow overview of vehicle dynamics with both qualitative and quantitative explanations. So much happiness!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A solid foundation
*by A***N on December 31, 2001*

My background is in computer engineering. As such, I have a basic understanding of kinematics, but approached this book with little knowledge of physics as specifically applied to vehicles. I found this book to be a perfect first step into the field. It picked up essentially where my knowledge left off and provided solid coverage of the topics discussed.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ My very first Amazon purchase
*by D***R on September 10, 2020*

Ahh, the good old days. This was my very first Amazon purchase back in 2005. We had gotten some stuff before then, but it was not MY account. Paid $79.95 for this back in 2005. Currently listed for $85.82. Going up only 7% in 15 years is not bad. Although...the information has also aged 15 years. But.... math is math. If cars were flying like they should have been in 2015, this book would have become obsolete. Oh well I guess we just have to stick with roads for now.
