Giampiero Mastinu, Massimiliano Gobbi, Carlo Miano9783642070716, 364207071X

This book presents foundations and practical application of multi-objective optimization methods to Vehicle Design Problems, bolstered with an extensive collection of examples. Opening with a broad theoretical introduction to the optimization of complex mechanical systems and multi-objective optimization methods, the book presents several applications which are extensively exposed here for the first time. The book includes examples of proposed methods to the solution of real vehicle design problems.
