Vehicle Feedback and Driver Situation Awareness (9781472426581)



A potentially troubling aspect of modern vehicle design - some would argue - is a trend for isolating the driver and reducing vehicle feedback, usually in the name of comfort and refinement but increasingly because of automation. There is little doubt cars have become more civilised over the years, yet despite this, the consequences of driver behaviour remain to a large extent anecdotal. Readers will have heard such anecdotes for themselves. They usually take the form of drivers of a certain age recalling their first cars from the 1970s or 80s, in which "doing 70 mph really felt like it". The question is whether such anecdotes actually reflect a bigger, more significant issue that could be better understood. Related questions have been explored in other domains such as aviation, where the change to 'fly-by-wire' did indeed bring about some occasionally serious performance issues that were not anticipated. Despite some clear parallels, automotive systems have been left relatively unstudied. The research described in this book aims to explore precisely these issues from a Human Factors perspective. This means connecting the topics of vehicle feel, vehicle dynamics, and automotive engineering with the latest research on driver situation awareness. The problem is explored experimentally from a variety of theoretical viewpoints but the outcomes are consistently practical. Here we have a promising new avenue along which the driver experience can be enhanced in novel and insightful ways. Tools and templates are provided so that engineers and designers can try different ways to boost vehicle safety, efficiency and enjoyment from a human-centered perspective.

Running : The Autobiography (9781409147398)

World Snooker Champion Ronnie O'Sullivan's frank and honest account of his astonishingly dramatic life. I used to rely on drugs and alcohol to keep me going, but now I've got the healthiest addiction going - running. This book explains how running has helped me to fight my demons - my addictive personality, depression, my dad's murder conviction, the painful break-up with the mother of my children - and allowed me to win five World Snooker Championships. It is also about all of the great things in my life - my kids, snooker, my dad's release from prison, great mates who have helped me, and the psychiatrist Dr Steve Peters, who has taught me how not to run away when things get tough. Finally, it's about what it's like to get the buzz - from running, from snooker, from life. Because when it comes down to it, everyone needs something to drive them on. Product details ...

Treasures In My Heart : A true WWII love story (9780595308187)

Paula Freeman was the sweetheart and eventually the wife of Sgt. John Ray, who was a paratrooper with the 82nd Airborne Division. He participated in the invasions of Africa and Italy and then was sent into France on D-Day. The inspiration for this story comes from 333 love letters written to Paula by John from January 1941 through June 6, 1944, when he made his fatal jump into Ste. Mere Eglise, France. Using these letters, along with her thoughts, memories, and a diary, Paula has reconstructed a beautiful love story that stirs up memories of World War II and what it was like to send a loved one off to war. Paula was never told how John died. It wasn't until she read Stephen Ambrose's book, D-Day June 6, 1944: The Climactic Battle of World War II that she discovered that her husband was a hero. She learned that John was associated with some of the best trained, most capable, and intelligent men in the world and was defending our country. Paula's goal in writing this book i...
