Vehicle Engineering Books

[Carolina Schmalzried]

Scientistsand engineers are working constantly to develop and improve the materials, machines and vehicles that are part of all our daily lives, and keeping abreast of advances in these fields is important to all those engaged in such efforts.

This book presents the proceedings of NMMVE 2023, the 2nd International Conference on New Materials, Machinery, and Vehicle Engineering, held in Guiyang, China, from 2 - 4 June 2023. The conference brings together researchers, academics, and industrial professionals from around the world to discuss the latest advancements in the fields of new materials, machinery, and vehicle engineering. A total of 149 submissions were received for presentation at the conference, of which 57 were ultimately accepted after a rigorous three-part single blind review process. A wide variety of topics is covered in the papers, which are divided into 3 categories: machinery, new materials, and vehicle engineering.

The book provides a valuable overview of the latest developments and breakthroughs, and will be of interest to all researchers and professionals working in the fields of new materials, machinery, and vehicle engineering.

This Ground Vehicle Engineering Series invites and unites high caliber professionals from the

industry, academia, and research government and private agencies for producing top quality

technical and handbooks, chapter books, undergraduate- and graduate-level texts on all aspects

of the engineering and research of various types of conventional (with a driver) and autonomous

vehicles for different operational domains, including but not limited to roads and rails, off-road

and severe terrain conditions, different climate and adversarial and military-related

environments, and celestial bodies.

The Series concentrates on conceptually new approaches and methodologies, especially related

to vehicle digital engineering and digital twin systems, vehicle dynamics, perception of

environment and vehicle-environment interaction with exteroceptive and proprioceptive sensors,

AI-based planning and control of vehicle mission, operation and performance, modeling of

vehicle systems, vehicles and systems of vehicles with immersing simulation in virtual and

mixed realities, human-vehicle interaction, vehicle and vehicle intelligent system design,

experimental physical and hybrid tests, verification and validation, vehicle maintenance,

repairing and manufacturing technologies.
