I actually spent quite a bit of time with debugging the model before sending here the question. I can't exclude a problem in the tire model with 100% certainty but it seemed ok to me. Probably we should isolate the tire model from the rest of the system and validate it using with real...
Thanks for the answers. I am looking to roll steering issue and in general to the suspension system which is not modeled with adequate detail at the moment.
I can't exclude an error in tire model but my first priority at the moment is getting something drivable as soon as possible :).
Hi Mike,
Yes body roll is included. On the other hand roll steer is not implemented. I started to read about roll steer and it might just be the thing that I am missing. But I am not sure whether I understand the concept. Is the following scenario correct?:
We drive 120 kmh on a highway and...
Some extra information:
The brake I am talking about is not a hard-brake and I am not sure that I am reaching the traction limits. I was also careful to implement a forward bias in braking. Some numbers might clarify:
Weight of car: 1560kg
speed : 130kmh
front wheel deflection: 0.35 degrees...
Hi,
I am working on a driving dynamics simulation and have a problem with braking during cornering. I don't have automotive engineering background so obviously I am missing something. Here is the story:
If I brake during a turn, turn rate increases considerably. E.g. when driving on highway at...
Hi,
I am working on helicopter rotor simulation using blade element model and have a question about how to compute the forces and moments at the hub.
I have N blades which are connected to the hub with a vertical and a horizontal hinge. Now, together with the helicopter body I have a pretty...
