He emphasizes the physical understanding of suspension parameters in three dimensions and methods of their calculation, using examples, programs and discussion of computational problems. The analytical and design approach taken is a combination of qualitative explanation, for physical understanding, with algebraic analysis of linear and non-linear coeffic 606 $aAutomobiles$xSprings and suspension$xMathematics 606 $aAutomobiles$xSteering-gear$xMathematics 606 $aAutomobiles$xStability 606 $aRoads$xMathematical models 615 0$aAutomobiles$xSprings and suspension$xMathematics. 615 0$aAutomobiles$xSteering-gear$xMathematics. 615 0$aAutomobiles$xStability. 615 0$aRoads$xMathematical models. 676 $a629.243 700 $aDixon$b John C.$f1948-$0471506 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910139960603321 996 $aSuspension geometry and computation$92182746 997 $aUNINA
