Dear All

I am pleased to attach a brochure describing the Cambridge Vehicle 
Dynamics Consortium's (CVDC) Technology Showcase Event.  This will be 
taking place at MIRA in Nuneaton on 19th October, 2010.  The 
consortium conducts research into heavy vehicle dynamics, 
specializing in areas such as safety, productivity and fuel consumption.

This event will be a unique opportunity to see first-hand the recent 
advancements in heavy vehicle technology developed by the CVDC. The 
Technology Showcase will feature exhibits, vehicle demonstrations, 
project updates and panel discussions relating to heavy goods 
vehicles and the future of long-combination-vehicles in the UK and 
Europe. Vehicle demonstrations will include the CVDC's own actively 
steered B-Double and Denby Transport Ltd's 'Eco-Link' concept 
vehicle. New technologies will also be on display from the other 
members, including Firestone Industrial Products, Haldex, Arvin 
Meritor, SimPack, Volvo and Goodyear. Tickets to the event are 
strictly limited and early registration is highly recommended.

If you would like to attend the CVDC Technology Showcase, please 
complete the information on the brochure and return it to Leon 
Henderson in the University (see address in the brochure).  You can 
also find further information at www.cvdc.org/showcase

You may also be interested in the fleet management conference, which 
is the day after the CVDC event, and quite nearby:
Network with heavy vehicle operators and gain an insight into their 
current priorities and challenges at the 7th annual Motor Transport 
and Commercial Motor Fleet Management conference on the 20th October.
