Automotive lightweighting using advanced high-strength steels
1 online resource (xiii, 184 pages) : illustrations (mostly color).
"In support of the latest automotive challenges in terms of weight reduction, I wrote this book in an attempt to lay out the true opportunities for alternative material utility in automobiles and to offer the most up-to-date design guidance in efficient architectures supported with the application of AHSS while exploring weight savings and resulting fuel economy advantages of this strategy. Realistic comparisons with other alternative materials are made through detailed analysis. Many projects that I have been part of will be explored to demonstrate how AHSS [advanced high-strength Steels ] technology has developed and to get us to the foothills of the mountain that we, as automobile design people, now must climb."--Preface.
