FLANERY ABSTRACT Midcentury American life featured a post-war economy that established a middle class in which disposable income and time for leisure were commonplace. In this socio-economic environment, consumerism flourished, ushering in the Golden Age of the automobile: from 1950 to 1960, Americans spent more time in their automobiles than ever before, and, by the end of the decade, the number of cars on the road had more than doubled. While much critical attention has been given to the role of the automobile in American novels, less has been given to its role in American short stories.

  • On the Improvement Measures of Interior Noise Reduction of Minivan's
    2560. On the improvement measures of interior noise reduction of minivan’s roof based on acoustic modal analysis Yici Li1, Lin Hua2, Fengxiang Xu3 Hubei Key Laboratory of Advanced Technology for Automotive Components, Wuhan University of Technology, Wuhan 430070, China Hubei Collaborative Innovation Center for Automotive Components Technology, Wuhan University of Technology, Wuhan 430070, China 2, 3Corresponding authors E-mail: [email protected], [email protected], [email protected] Received 17 November 2016; received in revised form 23 April 2017; accepted 6 May 2017 DOI https://doi.org/10.21595/jve.2017.18030 Abstract. In this work, three types of measures, i.e., 1) adding the damping adhesive, 2) changing the local beads and 3) utilizing the dynamic vibration absorber (DVA), are performed to investigate and improve the acoustic quality of the minivan’s interior noise. For adding the damping adhesive, the difference of the adhesive location directly affects the mode of minivan’s roof. For changing the local beads, eight cases of beads are selected. The results indicate that the change trend of the first natural frequency is parabolic as the number of beads increases. For adding the 33 Hz DVA, the results show that the sound pressure levels (SPLs) of the minivan’s response points located at the front, middle and rear seat in the critical frequency are approximately reduced by 2.1 dB, 1.5 dB and 1.1 dB in the minivan’s simulation, and by 2.6 dB(A), 1.4 dB(A) and 2.7 dB(A) in the minivan’s road experiment, respectively.

TAYLOR, individually and ) as personal representative of the estate of ) MARK E. TAYLOR, ) ) Plaintiff ) ) v. ) Civ. No. 06-69-B-W ) FORD MOTOR COMPANY, ) ) Defendant ) RECOMMENDED DECISION ON DEFENDANT'S MOTION FOR SUMMARY JUDGMENT Caryl Taylor contends that her deceased husband's 2002 Ford F-250 Super Cab pickup truck was defectively designed and that her husband would likely have survived a roll-over event but for alleged defects in the roof and door assemblies. Ms. Taylor never designated a automotive engineer or other design expert to support her claim of design defect. Ford Motor Company argues that this omission calls for judgment in its favor as a matter law and has filed a motion for summary judgment to that effect (Doc. No. 43). The Court referred the motion to me for a recommended decision and based on my review I recommend that the Court grant the motion, in part, based on certain concessions made by Taylor, but not as to the chief contention Ford makes with respect to the need for Taylor to have her own design expert. Facts The following facts are material to the summary judgment motion. They are drawn from the parties' statements of material facts in accordance with Local Rule 56. See Doe v.

BULJAC, I. DŽIJAN, I. KORADE, S. KRIZMANIĆ and H. KOZMAR* Faculty of Mechanical Engineering and Naval Architecture, University of Zagreb, Ivana Lučića 5, 10000 Zagreb, Croatia (Received 3 March 2015; Revised 4 September 2015; Accepted 29 November 2015) ABSTRACT−Computational model is developed to analyze aerodynamic loads and flow characteristics for an automobile, when the rear wing is placed above the trunk of the vehicle. The focus is on effects of the rear wing height that is investigated in four different positions. The relative wind incidence angle of the rear wing is equal in all configurations. Hence, the discrepancies in the results are only due to an influence of the rear wing position. Computations are performed by using the Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes equations along with the standard k-ε turbulence model and standard wall functions assuming the steady viscous fluid flow. While the lift force is positive (upforce) for the automobile without the rear wing, negative lift force (downforce) is obtained for all configurations with the rear wing in place. At the same time, the rear wing increases the automobile drag that is not favorable with respect to the automobile fuel consumption. However, this drawback is not that significant, as the rear wing considerably benefits the automobile traction and stability.

First, an antenna cavity made from carbon fiber reinforced polymer was measured without a vehicle, to obtain general results 185 without model specific influence. Second, a metal cavity was built into the roof of a sedan type passenger car to include the marked effects of the car body and provide a proof of performance. Gain Fig. 1.

They list additional requirements beyond the GRA that are specific to vehicles competing in Off Road Racing events. Where an item shown on an Individual Recognition Document (IRD) issued by the AASA for a specific vehicle is in conflict with either the GRA or GRO, then that specific IRD specification will take priority. 1. Each automobile must be equipped with a firewall that effectively shields the occupants from hazards associated with the derangement or malfunction of the engine and gearbox. A water-cooling radiator mounted behind and above the level of the driver’s shoulders will be regarded as contributing to an effective shield. 2. Each automobile, other than those retaining a series production floor pan, must be equipped with bodywork which prevents any “line of sight” entry of foreign matter into the habitacle up to approximately the level of the driver’s shoulder. For panels fitted to the floor of the habitacle, the material required shall be either mild steel of minimum thickness 1.6mm or aluminium alloy of minimum thickness 2.0mm. Attention should be paid to the strength and impact resistance of the material used for the remaining bodywork.

The Manufacturer's Duty in "Second Collision" Automobile Product Liability Cases INTRODUCTION Automobile manufacturers have long been subject to liability for damages caused by a defect in their product which contributes to an accident or collision. In MacPherson v. Buick Motor Co.,' the court ruled that an automobile manufacturer whose defective wooden steer- ing wheel collapsed and caused an accident was liable for its negligence in building the wheel and failing to inspect it, not only to the buyer of the automobile, but also to others who may foreseeably be injured by 2 the negligence of the manufacturer. Davlin v. Henry Ford & Sons recognized the duty of a tractor manufacturer "to use reasonable care in employing designs, selecting materials, and making assemblies, in the construction of a tractor, which would fairly meet any emergency of use which could.reasonably be anticipated,"8 but the case found that the plaintiff had not met his burden of proof in proving that the tractor seat broke because of the manufacturer's negligence.
