Preface
The book Rail Vehicle Dynamics was developed from a course book for the class Rail Vehicle Dynamics at the Technical University (TU) Berlin. Klaus Knothe has been responsible for the class for almost 25 years, 20 of these years together with Prof. Robert Gasch. Therefore, Chaps. 4–7 are strongly influenced by Prof. Gasch. Sebastian Stichel was a Ph.D. student for five years at the Department of Aeronautics and Astronautics and during that time, substantially revised the course literature. Today, he is a professor of rail vehicle dynamics at the Royal Institute of Technology (KTH), in Stockholm. Further results from numerous research projects and Ph.D. theses are included. A German version of the book was published in 2003. The reason for writing a textbook on rail vehicle dynamics was that a comprehensive book on the topic did not exist, either in German or English. In the two excellent books on Fahrzeugdynamik (Vehicle Dynamics) [1] and on Systemdynamik und Regelung von Fahrzeugen (System Dynamics and Control of Vehicles) [2], rail vehicle dynamics specifically could not be described extensively. In English, there is the book of Garg and Dukkipati [3], but it is somewhat dated now. The same applies to the b
