Modelling Commercial Vehicle Handling and Rolling Stability [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Part K: Journal of Multi-body Dynamics, 2005
This paper presents a multi-degrees-of-freedom non-linear multibody dynamic model of a three-axle heavy commercial vehicle tractor unit, comprising a subchassis, front and rear leaf spring suspensions, steering system, and ten wheels/tyres, with a semi-trailer comprising two axles and eight wheels/tyres.

Analysis for vehicle dynamics and steering system parameters effect on steering characteristics of steering feel (Fundamental study for performance design of objective target on steering feel)

open access: yesNihon Kikai Gakkai ronbunshu, 2017
The purpose of this paper is to clarify the effect of vehicle dynamics and steering system parameter on steering feel. The objective evaluation method for on-center and off-center evaluates steering effort, steering torque gradient, torque hysteresis and

A fundamental study of dynamic behavior of vehicles with unstable region under force control

open access: yesNihon Kikai Gakkai ronbunshu, 2015
The primary method of improving steering dynamic response performance is expected to involve position control. However the driver uses not only the position of the steering wheel but also torque for control.

A consideration to natural frequencies under force control

open access: yesNihon Kikai Gakkai ronbunshu, 2015
For characterizing vehicle dynamic behavior, the natural frequency and the damping ratio under position control, that is the control using steering angle as driver's input, have been developed as representative indices.

Bicycle handling quality perception: mixed effect of stability and manoeuvrability

open access: yesThe Evolving Scholar, 2023
The sudden resurgence in bicycle popularity is pushing their design towards new features. However, the link between the design variables of a bicycle and its handling quality is poorly established. This experimental study illustrates that the perception of handling quality is affected by a lack of stability at low speeds and by poor manoeuvrability at ...

The effect of swingarm stiffness on motorcycle stability: Experimental measurements and numerical simulations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
This paper focuses on the effect of swingarm deformability on motorcycle stability and in particular on the weave mode. Multibody models for the analysis of stability and handling of single track vehicles require a lumped element representation of the ...

Sliding Mode Switch Control of Adjustable Hydro-Pneumatic Suspension based on Parallel Adaptive Clonal Selection Algorithm

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2020
The hydro-pneumatic suspension, as a widely used suspension for heavy vehicles, has been taken seriously by researchers for a long time because it is crucial in terms of handling stability, riding comfort, and driving safety of these vehicles.

Microtubules Stabilization by Mutant Spastin Affects ER Morphology and Ca2+ Handling [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2019
The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) extends as a network of interconnected tubules and sheet-like structures in eukaryotic cells. ER tubules dynamically change their morphology and position within the cells in response to physiological stimuli and these network rearrangements depend on the microtubule (MT) cytoskeleton.
