Automotive Product Development A Systems Engineering Implementation

This new edition continues to explore the intricate processes of designing developing and manufacturing automotive products by integrating multiple levels of complex systems. It describes systems engineering and attribute engineering ensuring the new product meets the customer's desired attributes. It also discusses cascading vehicle-level attribute requirements to all vehicle systems analyzing interfaces between systems and developing interface requirements for seamless collaboration. The second edition of Automotive Product Development: A Systems Engineering Implementation has been meticulously revised to incorporate the most recent innovations in vehicle powertrains driver interfaces and state-of-the-art manufacturing techniques. Additionally it discusses the influence of government regulations on safety fuel economy and emissions. This enhanced edition boasts four new chapters 12 new sections and updated examples in implementing new technologies providing a comprehensive overview of the industry's challenges and the array of approaches and tools at engineers' disposal for designing analyzing and evaluating products. By mastering these essential steps engineers can develop products that not only meet but exceed the needs and expectations of their customers. The ongoing goal of this book is to equip practicing and future engineering graduates in the automotive industry with the essential knowledge needed to understand the product development process and how to implement systems engineering.
