      Target cascading in vehicle redesign: A class VI truck study 

      Kim, H. M.; Kokkolaras, M.; Louca, Loucas S.; Delagrammatikas, G. J.; Michelena, N. F.; Filipi, Z. S.; Papalambros, P. Y.; Stein, J. L.; Assanis, D. N. (2002)
      The analytical target cascading process is applied to the redesign of a U.S. class VI truck. Necessary simulation and analysis models for predicting vehicle dynamics, powertrain, and suspension behaviour are developed. ...
