Every one of the many millions of cars manufactured annually
worldwide uses shock absorbers, otherwise known as dampers. These
form a vital part of the suspension system of any vehicle,
essential for optimizing road holding, performance and safety.
This, the second edition of the Shock Absorber Handbook (first
edition published in 1999), remains the only English language book
devoted to the subject. Comprehensive coverage of design, testing,
installation and use of the damper has led to the book's acceptance
as the authoritative text on the automotive applications of shock
absorbers. In this second edition, the author presents a thorough
revision of his book to bring it completely up to date. There are
numerous detail improvements, and extensive new material has been
added particularly on the many varieties of valve design in the
conventional hydraulic damper, and on modern developments such as
electrorheological and magnetorheological dampers. The text is
generously illustrated throughout with numerous diagrams and
photographs.
""The Shock Absorber Handbook, 2nd Edition"" provides a thorough
treatment of the issues surrounding the design and selection of
shock absorbers. It is an invaluable handbook for those working in
industry, as well as a principal reference text for students of
mechanical and automotive engineering.
