In Ergonomics in the Automotive Design Process: Advanced Topics, Measurements, Modelling and Research, experienced automotive engineer Vivek D. Bhise investigates the advanced procedures and considerations to develop an ergonomic vehicle.
Automotive design continues to evolve at a pace. As electric cars become ever more commonplace on the roads to the advent of driverless vehicles, understanding the ergonomics behind automotive engineering becomes ever more paramount. Vehicle attributes must be considered early during the new vehicle development program by coordinated work of multi-disciplinary teams to begin creating vehicle specifications and development of vehicle attribute requirements.
In Ergonomics in the Automotive Design Process: Advanced Topics, Measurements, Modelling and Research, experienced automotive engineer Vivek D. Bhise investigates the advanced procedures and considerations to develop an ergonomic vehicle This book covers the entire range of ergonomics issues involved in designing a car or truck and offers evaluation techniques to avoid costly mistakes and assure high customer satisfaction. This book delves into driver performance, electric vehicles (EVs), interfaces, new technology and costs and benefits plus a lot more. Evaluation and measurement are covered in essential detail and the title has been brought right up to date with chapters on engineering design during automotive product development, vehicle evaluation, verification and validation and product liability litigations and ergonomic considerations. This book is designed to allow the reader to develop a more comprehensive knowledge of issues facing the developers of automotive products and delivers methods to manage communication, coordination and integration processes. Delivering a toolkit that will allow you to implement systems engineering to minimize the risks of delays and cost overruns, it delivers a framework that will allow you to create the right product for your customers. The reader will therefore develop a knowledge of future in-vehicle devices that are easy to program and use, safe, cheap to manufacture and assemble and eco-friendly.
This title is an ideal read for students and practitioners of ergonomics, human factors, automotive design, civil engineering, product design, work design and mechanical engineering.
