Beschreibung

Automotive Aerodynamics explores the crucial role of aerodynamics in vehicle design, focusing on how air interacts with cars to affect speed, fuel efficiency, and stability. The book delves into fundamental principles like drag and lift, explaining how these forces impact vehicle performance. Interestingly, even subtle design elements, such as spoilers and diffusers, can significantly reduce drag, leading to better fuel economy, with some vehicles optimized to achieve a drag coefficient as low as 0.25. 

 
The book progresses through key sections, first examining the sources of drag and lift on a vehicle's body. It then explores drag reduction methods and stability improvements using shaping and aerodynamic devices. Finally, it analyzes the interaction between aerodynamics and other vehicle systems, such as cooling and ventilation. 

 
Using data from wind tunnel testing and computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations, the book bridges theoretical concepts with practical engineering solutions, providing readers with the knowledge to improve vehicle performance.

The Edge of Silence - In Search...

Neil Ansell

A journey like no other.
Acclaimed nature writer Neil Ansell has suffered from progressive hearing loss his whole life. As his world is becoming ever more silent, he suddenly hears something quite unexpected – the haunting call of the great northern diver. It is this extraordinary experience which makes him realise that there might still be remarkable sounds in nature within his reach – if he can only find himself in the right place at the right time.
This moving book charts Neil's mission to hear rare and elusive creatures that he had not previously encountered. This journey takes him from the mountaintops and islands of the Scottish Highlands to the marshes of England and the hills of Wales. Many of these species are in grave danger of extinction, so the future Neil faces, devoid of their distinctive calls, is one we all must fight to prevent.

Goldeneye 007

Alyse Knorr

Bond—James Bond. In the 80s and 90s, the debonair superspy's games failed to live up to the giddy thrills of his films. That all changed when British studio Rare unleashed GoldenEye 007 in 1997. In basements and college dorms across the world, friends bumped shoulders while shooting, knifing, exploding, and slapping each other's digital faces in the Nintendo 64 game that would redefine the modern first-person shooter genre and become the most badass party game of its generation. 
 
 
  
But GoldenEye's success was far from a sure thing. For years of development, GoldenEye's team of rookie developers were shooting in the dark with no sense of what the N64 or its controller would be like, and the game's relentless violence horrified higher-ups at squeaky clean Nintendo. As development lagged far behind the debut of the tie-in film GoldenEye, the game nearly came out an entire Bond movie too late. 
 
 
  
Through extensive interviews with GoldenEye's creators, writer and scholar Alyse Knorr traces the story of how this unlikely licensed game reinvigorated a franchise and a genre. Learn all the stories behind how this iconic title was developed, and why GoldenEye 007 has continued to kick the living daylights out of every other Bond game since.
