The thirteenth edition of The Motor Vehicle features up-to-date information on vehicle technology. Completely updated, the book is organized into three major sections focusing on: The Engine The Transmission The Carriage Unit The new edition features three new chapters devoted to electric propulsion, static and dynamic safety, and wheel and tires. The book also contains expanded information on: the compression ignition engine; automatic, semi-automatic and continuously variable transmissions; braking and traction; and steering. The Motor Vehicle provides practicing engineers, students, and car enthusiasts with a comprehensive reference to the car as we know it today. It is written in simple terms so that, despite the complexity of certain topics, readers will easily understand the concepts presented.

<p>Describes the current state of automotive body technology. It covers design and construction of sheet steel vehicle structures; car and commercial vehicle bodies; trim; applications of plastics; and protection against corrosion. The text is accompanied by more than 200 photographs and drawings. Earlier chapters follow the various stages of steel car body construction, starting with the complete styling operation from initial concept to final full size model. The second chapter describes how the body is divided into its constituent steel panels. The third chapter describes equipment and techniques used to press, weld and assemble the panels into the finished structure, the fourth, the manufacture and testing of prototypes. The fifth chapter deals with the production of interior upholstery. Each remaining chapter covers a more particular area of body technology. These are: the construction of commercial vehicle bodies, in the wide variety of materials and forms that the multitude of current uses requires; the use of plastics in automotive bodywork, exterior and interior, passenger and goods, with photographic sequences showing the actual vehicle construction; and lastly the protection of sheet steel body structures by paint and anti-corrosion finishes.</p>

The text presents a comprehensive account of the properties of modern magnetically-soft ferrites, a class of magnetic oxide (ceramic) material which finds a wide application in electronics equipment. The theory and practice of utilizing these ferrites as cores for wound components such as inductors and transformers is illustrated with numerous graphs and tables. All design procedures are supported by worked examples. For this second edition, all chapters have been revised to bring them into line with current practice and to relate them to currently available ferrite materials and cores.
