  2. 1. Hydraulic power steering in passenger cars : analysis, modeling and new functionality

    Author : Marcus Rösth; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Abstract : THIS THESIS COVERS various aspects of hydraulic power assisted steering, HPAS, systems in road vehicles. Power steering is viewed as a dynamic system and is investigated with linear and non-linear modeling techniques. READ MORE

  4. 2. Passenger Car Wheel Aerodynamics

    Author : Christoffer Landström; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; CFD; tyres; wind tunnel; Passenger car aerodynamics; ground simulation; wheel rotation; drag; wheels;

    Abstract : Current and future requirements for efficiency force the automotive industry to consider all aspects of reducing the energy consumption of road going vehicles. An important aspect of reducing fuel consumption is reduced aerodynamic drag, which at highway cruising speeds is dominating the total drag force for both cars and heavy goods vehicles. READ MORE

  5. 3. Flow field investigation of rotating wheels on passenger cars

    Author : Christoffer Landström; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Abstract : The importance of aerodynamics of road-going vehicles on the total driving resistance and hence fuel consumption is well known to vehicle manufactures. At present, upper body aerodynamics of passenger cars is relatively well understood. READ MORE
