Influence of the asymmetry of cornering forces on the static stability of a two-axle vehicle

  • Published:
International Applied Mechanics Aims and scope

Abstract

The influence of design characteristics (elastic characteristics of tires and asymmetry of cornering forces) on the stability and handling of a vehicle is studied. The parameter continuation method is used to validate the results of constructing bifurcation sets in the space of two control parameters.
