"Prof. H.B. Pacejka is a very well-known expert in vehicle system dynamics and in tyre dynamics in particular. The book covers the wide range from tyre modelling and simulation to application examples. It gives a comprehensive insight to the sophisticated theory of tyre dynamics and due to its clear presentation it is not only of great value for the understanding of the complex tyre phenomena but it will become an indispensable companion to every engineer working in vehicles system dynamics in the future as well. One of the great advantages of this book is that it builds up on relative simple tyre models and progresses to higher complexity. The basic understanding of contact and force transfer provides the skeleton for more detailed description of the phenomena in steady state and transient conditions. A remarkable fine feature of this book is that the theoretical or empirical tyre model descriptions are also presented in the context of their practical use in vehicle dynamics e.g. wheel shimmy, ABS braking or motorcycle dynamics. Especially the latter, a topic that is nearly nowhere presented in such a comprehensive way. The presentation of mathematical formulations, figures and diagrams is excellent and very clear. Many comparisons of calculated and measured characteristics emphasize the practical value of the presented models and their applications. A number of exercises provides the possibility to check understanding. A book of this kind, was long overdue for academical and industrial research and development. It can be highly recommended and will be a very helpful and often used tool for a wide range of vehicle dynamics investigations, and will become a standard reference in the future. Prof. P.

Kurzbeschreibung
In Tyre and Vehicle Dynamics Professor Hans Pacejka provides both basic and more advanced explanations of the pneumatic tyre and its impact on vehicle dynamic performance. Tyre and Vehicle Dynamics is the definitive book in tyre mechanics by the acknowledged leading world authority Hans Pacejka. The author provides both basic and advanced knowledge of the mechanical behaviour of the pneumatic tyre and its impact on vehicle dynamic performance. The theoretical treatment given to the subject is supported throughout by practical experimental observations, and the book also focuses on developing an understanding upon which mathematical models of tyre behaviour can be developed and used. The text then acquaints the reader with the way in which the tyre models are incorporated in vehicle models and how the tyre influences vehicle behaviour. Those working in any industry involving equipment with tyres, such as aircraft undercarriage designers, will find this book both extremely useful and relevant.
