Description and Table of Contents
Description
The Autotech Congress brings together manufacturers, researchers, designers, users, industry groups and academics to create a forum for the exchange of information and innovations. The papers included here examine the major advances and technological breakthroughs of today which shall become standard practice for tomorrow. This text looks at the important areas of the total powertrain system as well as outlining new projects.
