| Summary |
This book stems from our firsthand knowledge of Maurice Olley's accomplishments and his method of working. Maurice Olley was an automobile engineer all his life, but unlike many other well-known designers, he was equally experimental and analytical. As he approached the various aspects of design during his long career, his objective was always to develop an analytical model and experimentally validate it. With that done, he proceeded to methodically document the results for future use. He worked at a fundamental level and, since the same handling problems consistently recur, the principles he developed are as valid today as when first developed |
