Editor's Note ... Thank you for your patronage for a long time.

Hello everyone.Thank you for always reading the Kijima Seminar.This seminar brings the theory of automobile engineering back to a world that everyone can understand, and it has been developed aiming at the definition by the easy engineering theory in order to understand the sensibilities experienced in daily driving.In other words, we have started the course with the aim of bringing engineering closer to everyone's sensibilities.
What kind of mechanics works in various driving environments such as merging from highway ramps, driving on circuits, driving on mountain passes, gymkhana, etc., what kind of movement the car is doing, and the driver Has clarified what kind of sensibilities he perceives that impression.In addition, I have also mentioned what kind of thoughts should be taken when tuning a car in various scenes.Above all, we focused on the ease of understanding how to get a car that suits your sensibility so that you can enjoy your car life.For items that are difficult to understand even if we develop a pure theory, we have carefully developed the numerical values ​​that match the sensibilities of the senses and the images that can be drawn.Having said that, it was a very difficult task to quantify the movement phenomenon and understand the sensibilities.I have avoided using the equation of motion, knowing that it is theoretically correct and accurate.In order to understand sensibilities, I thought it would be better to understand the changes in movements and forces that suit your senses, rather than understanding the equation of motion.The hardest part was defining the concept of time so that you could understand the image of the turning roll behavior in Chapter 17.Acceleration is defined as occurring at an instant, and when describing the behavior, it incorporates changes over time in minute increments.It is a description with the understanding that there is a contradiction when developing a theory purely.We hope that you will understand these points and understand the relationship between the behavior of the car and the sensibility of the driver.
Your sensibility for the car is created based on the memory of the driving experience that you have accumulated so far.Therefore, each and every one of us has a different car, a different driving experience, and different sensibilities.The description of the sensibilities dealt with in this seminar is the sensibilities that I created based on my own 50 years of experience in car development as an engineer.Therefore, I think that there are many people who have different memories and different sensibilities who have experienced driving in various fields.Please take good care of your sensibilities and seek a car that gives you the sensibilities that you can understand.

We started the seminar for more than XNUMX years, hoping that you will understand the behavior of the car, which is the source of your sensibility, and use it for a car life with high sensibility that pursues the enjoyment of driving for the rest of your life.I think that there are still many behaviors and theories that you want to know, but Kijima Seminar is here when the theme of maneuverability, which is essential knowledge to enjoy driving, has settled down. , I will close the course.And I look forward to the next opportunity to speak to you.Kijima Seminar We would like to express our sincere gratitude for your patronage.

Thank you for reading Kijima Seminar for a long time.
The purpose of this seminar is to help you understand the movement mechanism of the car and enjoy intelligent driving.Therefore, the point was whether we could convey the very difficult automobile engineering gently and easily, and whether we could gain an understanding of the principles.Therefore, I made an unreasonable request to Mr. Kijima for editing, set conditions that could not be realized in reality, and roughly simplified complicated movements.In that sense, the approach is different from the lectures for engineers, and I am confident that it may have helped everyone's understanding.However, I think it contained a lot of difficult content.Even if you don't understand everything, you can imagine the movement mechanism of the car while driving, and I think that it is enough as an entrance to the dynamic Kansei engineering that Mr. Kijima advocates.Recently, if you are interested, you can easily and infinitely search on the Internet.I hope that you will continue to do your best so that you can gain deeper knowledge with this seminar as an opportunity.We would like to thank all the editorial staff from the bottom of our hearts.
