This book includes the carefully edited contributions to the 'United Engineering Foundation Conference: The Aerodynamics of Heavy Vehicles: Trucks, Buses and Trains', held in Monterey, California from December 2-6, 2002. This conference brought together 90 leading engineering researchers discussing the aerodynamic drag of heavy vehicles. The book topics include a comparison of computational fluid dynamics calculations using both steady and unsteady Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes, large-eddy simulation, and hybrid turbulence models and experimental data obtained from wind tunnel experiments.
