LATERAL DYNAMICS OF ROAD VEHICLES

Vehicle System Dynamics, 1987
SUMMARY The paper gives an introductory treatment of the handling, stability and vibrating behaviour of two-axle, two-track single unit road vehicles in combined lateral and yaw directions. The treatment is divided into two chapters. The first deals with the steady-state cornering behaviour and properties of disturbed motions.

On the history of lateral vehicle dynamics

PAMM, 2014
AbstractThe lateral motion of vehicles on tracks and roads is characterized by the rolling contact between wheels and guideway. Railway vehicles feature passive lateral guidance while road vehicles are operated by steering. Lateral dynamics is an extremely complex problem but the fundamental behaviour can already understood by strongly simplified ...

A driver model for vehicle lateral dynamics

International Journal of Vehicle Design, 2011
There have been several studies aiming to develop a realistic driver model in accordance with the increased interest in vehicle safety issues and in computer simulation for a vehicle design. This study is especially considering the human driver's steering process; path planning, feed-forward steering, and preview feedback steering.

Lateral Vehicle Dynamics

2011
The first section in this chapter provides a review of several types of lateral control systems that are currently under development by automotive manufacturers and researchers. The subsequent sections in the chapter study kinematic and dynamic models for lateral vehicle motion. Control system design for lateral vehicle applications is studied later in

Lateral Vehicle Dynamics on Rutted Roads

2020
A vehicle may experience lowly damped oscillations and stability issues when driving through a rut. The tire response to camber variations plays a decisive role in this phenomenon, which is known as wandering. Realistic ranges for the cornering, camber and other stiffnesses have been determined using a database with Magic Formula parameters for a large

Integrated Controls of Lateral Vehicle Dynamics

Vehicle System Dynamics, 1994
SUMMARY A study is presented dealing with the synergism coming from the integration of such controlled systems which are designed for improving the dynamic behaviour of road vehicles. A modified 1/4 car model is derived which allows suspension, torque and steering control to be applied to a low order vehicle model.

Lateral dynamic features of a railway vehicle

Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Part F: Journal of Rail and Rapid Transit, 2015
The lateral dynamic features of a railway vehicle are investigated using two similar wheel/rail contact models: the Vermeulen–Johnson and the Shen–Hedrick–Elkins models. The symmetric/asymmetric bifurcation behaviour and chaotic motions of the railway vehicle are investigated in great detail by varying the speed and using the ‘resultant bifurcation ...

Effect of vehicle model on the estimation of lateral vehicle dynamics

International Journal of Automotive Technology, 2010
A methodology is presented for estimating vehicle handling dynamics, which are important to control system design and safety measures. The methodology, which is based on an extended Kalman filter (EKF), makes it possible to estimate lateral vehicle states and tire forces on the basis of the results obtained from sinusoidal steering stroke tests that ...

Coordinated lateral and longitudinal vehicle dynamics control of a scale RC vehicle

2015 American Control Conference (ACC), 2015
This paper addresses the design, implementation and validation of a coordinated lateral and longitudinal dynamics control for a racing four-wheel driven RC vehicle. The coordination is achieved hierarchically: a wheel slip control loop stabilizes the fastest longitudinal dynamics, so that the outer lateral dynamics control can rely on non-saturated ...

Introduction to Lateral Dynamics of Railway Vehicles

2016
The vibration behavior of rail vehicles in the lateral direction is to a great extent determined by the behavior of the wheelset and thus by the processes in the contact between wheel and rail.
