Engineering for advancing ground vehicle mobility 

A standard text and reference for both the educational and professional communities, *Theory of Ground Vehicles* gives aspiring and practicing engineers a fundamental understanding of the critical factors affecting the performance, handling, and ride essential to the development and design of ground vehicles. In view of the growing concerns over environmental impact, energy efficiency, and safety, this new Fourth Edition has been revised and expanded to address these issues and other developments in the field. 

Retaining the contents and format of previous editions, the Fourth Edition introduces new material to reflect recent advances in ground transportation technology, including: 

* Computer-aided methods for design and performance evaluation of off-road vehicles and their practical applications 
* Emissions and fuel economy 
* Hybrid electric drives and fuel cells and their operating principles 
* Selection of vehicle configurations for off-road operations 
* Road vehicle stability control 
* ISO 2631-1:1997 and its applications to evaluating vehicle ride characteristics 

As in previous editions, this book focuses on applying engineering principles to the analysis of vehicle behavior. A large number of practical examples and problems are included throughout to help readers bridge the gap between theory and practice. With its broad coverage and pedagogical aids, Theory of Ground Vehicles, Fourth Edition remains the text of choice for students, engineers, and researchers wishing to master and apply basic theory to solve real-world, road and off-road vehicle mobility problems.

Toegepaste energietechniek deel 1 biedt een inleiding in de wereld van de energietechnische systemen. In het boek komen alle energietechnieken en -systemen aan bod. Het is het enige boek in Nederland op dit vakgebied. Na twee algemene hoofdstukken over energietechniek en verbrandingstechniek wordt achtereenvolgens aandacht besteed aan de onderwerpen warmwaterketels, zuigerverbrandingsmotoren, gasturbines, stoominstallaties, pompen, compressoren en ventilatoren, koude-installaties en geïntegreerde installaties als STEG.Met dit boek leert de student de technieken en systemen te herkennen en te beoordelen op functioneren aan de hand van keuzecriteria.Bij de bespreking van deze systemen wordt uitgegaan van een systeembenadering waarin de nadruk ligt op de gebruikseigenschappen en -kenmerken van de werktuigen en energiesystemen.Tevens komen de aspecten energie-efficiency en vermindering van de milieubelasting aan bod.Optimalisering van de rendementen is de rode draad bij alle systemen.
