On Lateral Dynamics of Vehicles Based on Nonlinear Characteristics of Tires |
| |
Abstract: | The problems of vehicle lateral dynamics based on nonlinear characteristics of tires are discussed in this paper. A new nonlinear perturbation model on the cornering behavior of the tire is constructed. The nonlinear influences of tires on the steady-state steering behavior, dynamic response and handling stability of vehicle are discussed, applying the approximate analytical methods for nonlinear vibration. An analytical criterion of stability is obtained. Some numerical examples are given. |
