The book explores the challenges in research and development of new vehicles brought about by recent advances in theory and practice. Highlighting topics such as Human-Machine Interaction, Advanced Driver Assistance Systems, and the hugely evolving subject of digital human modeling and simulation in automotive applications, the book covers:
Best practices and emerging developments
Advances in power train technology
Ergonomics of electric vehicles
Effects of driver distraction, workload, and physical environments
Active safety systems
Navigation support
Vibration and noise perception
Health and safety aspects of driving
While this area is not new, most of the books available are either too general or out of date. This book presents the latest developments in the field of ergonomics and human factors and discusses their implications to the design of modern and future vehicles, giving you the tools you need for innovation.
