Automotive Tribology (Energy, Environment, and Sustainability)
by Jitendra Kumar Katiyar Shantanu Bhattacharya Vinay Kumar Patel Vikram KumarThis book presents a comprehensive study of all important aspects of tribology. It covers issues and their remedies adopted by researchers working on automobile systems. The book is broadly divided in to three sections, viz. (i) new materials for automotive applications, (ii) new lubricants for automotive applications, and (iii) impact of surface morphologies for automotive applications. The rationale for this division is to provide a comprehensive and categorical review of the developments in automotive tribology. The book covers tribological aspects of engines, and also discusses influence of new materials, such as natural fibers, metal foam materials, natural fiber reinforced polymer composites, carbon fiber/silicon nitride polymer composites and aluminium matrix composites. The book also looks at grease lubrication, effectiveness and sustainability of solid/liquid additives in lubrication, and usage of biolubricants. In the last section the book focuses on brake pad materials, shot peening method, surface texturing, magnetic rheological fluid for smart automobile brake and clutch systems, and application of tribology in automobile systems. This book will be of interest to students, researchers, and professionals from the automotive industry.
Automotive User Interfaces: Creating Interactive Experiences in the Car (Human–Computer Interaction Series)
by Gerrit Meixner Christian MüllerThis book focuses on automotive user interfaces for in-vehicle usage, looking at car electronics, its software of hidden technologies (e.g., ASP, ESP), comfort functions (e.g., navigation, communication, entertainment) and driver assistance (e.g., distance checking). The increased complexity of automotive user interfaces, driven by the need for using consumer electronic devices in cars as well as autonomous driving, has sparked a plethora of new research within this field of study. Covering a broad spectrum of detailed topics, the authors of this edited volume offer an outstanding overview of the current state of the art; providing deep insights into usability and user experience, interaction techniques and technologies as well as methods, tools and its applications, exploring the increasing importance of Human-Computer-Interaction (HCI) within the automotive industry Automotive User Interfaces is intended as an authoritative and valuable resource for professional practitioners and researchers alike, as well as computer science and engineering students who are interested in automotive interfaces.
Autonome Autos: Medien- und kulturwissenschaftliche Perspektiven auf die Zukunft der Mobilität (Digitale Gesellschaft #32)
by Florian SprengerVerkehr ist Kultur. Er bestimmt darüber, was sich wo und auf welchen Wegen befindet, wer aufeinandertrifft und wer nicht - er bildet die Grundlage der Netzwerke, die Menschen und Dinge miteinander eingehen. Mit der Automatisierung des Verkehrs, der Etablierung von Fahrassistenzsystemen und der Entwicklung selbstfahrender Autos stehen nicht nur die Verhältnisse menschlicher und nicht-menschlicher Verkehrsteilnehmender in Frage. Nicht nur die ethischen und juristischen Grundlagen des Straßenverkehrs, sondern auch die basalen Bedingungen des Umgangs miteinander müssen neu verhandelt werden. Die Beiträger*innen des Bandes analysieren aus medien- und kulturwissenschaftlicher Perspektive die Transformationen der Mobilität, die Verkehrswende und das vielfach aufgeladene Objekt Auto.
