Home - Concepts of Aerodynamics

Quote:
"Aside from offering a solid understanding of ground vehicle aerodynamics, the book also offers more thorough study of several key topics. One such topic is car-truck interaction, when one vehicle (usually the smaller one) is overtaking the other. There is a direct and instant benefit in terms of safety on the highway from understanding the forces at play when one vehicle passes the other in the same direction and sense."
I only made it through half of his sample lecture, it being so simple-minded it was making my head hurt. So I looked at the page source—that's a lot of code [created in Joobla] for a header, 2-picture slide show and a couple of paragraphs.

I'll pass.
