Chapter 4 SEMIEMPIRICAL TYRE MODELS
In the preceding chapter the theory of the tyre force and moment generating properties have been dealt with based on physical tyre models. The present chapter treats models that have been specifically designed to represent the tyre as a vehicle component in a vehicle simulation environment. The modelling approach is termed 'semi-empirical' because the models are based on measured data but may contain structures that find their origin in physical models like those treated in the preceding...
22 Definition of Tyre Input Quantities
If the problem which is going to be investigated involves road irregularities, then the location and the orientation of the stub axle spindle axis must be known with respect to the specific irregularity met on the road. The road surface is defined with respect to a coordinate system of axes attached to the road. If the position and orientation of the axle is known with respect to the fixed triad then the exact position of the wheel with respect of the possibly irregular road surface can be...
Motorcycle Dynamics
The single track vehicle is more difficult to study than the double track automobile and poses a challenge to the vehicle dynamicist. Stability of motion is an important issue and it turns out that the stabilising actions of the human rider are essential to properly handle the vehicle. Steady-state cornering behaviour can be analysed in a straightforward manner together with the examination of the stability of the equilibrium motion. While for an automobile only the lateral and yaw degrees of...
32 Tyre Brush Model
The brush model consists of a row of elastic bristles that touches the road plane and can deflect in a direction parallel to the road surface. These bristles may be called tread elements. Their compliance represents the elasticity of the combination of carcass, belt and actual tread elements of the real tyre. As the tyre rolls, the first element that enters the contact zone is assumed to stand perpendicularly with respect to the road surface. When the tyre rolls freely that is without the...
Tyre Characteristics And Vehicle Handling And Stability
This chapter is meant to serve as an introduction to vehicle dynamics with emphasis on the influence of tyre properties. Steady-state cornering behaviour of simple automobile models and the transient motion after small and large steering inputs and other disturbances will be discussed. The effects of various shape factors of tyre characteristics cf. Fig. 1.1 on vehicle handling properties will be analysed. The slope of the side force Fy vs slip angle a near the origin the cornering or side slip...

For the sake of simplicity we have assumed m k2 ab. By using Eq. 1.94 the traj ectories solution curves can be constructed in the au a2 plane. The isocline method turns out to be straightforward and simple to employ. The pattern of the trajectories is strongly influenced by the so-called singular points. In these points the motion finds an equilibrium. In the singular points the motion is stationary and consequently, the differentials of the state variables vanish. From the handling diagram K...

with g denoting the acceleration due to gravity. After having defined the lateral acceleration which in the present linear analysis equals the centripetal acceleration Eq. l .53 can be written in the more convenient form The meaning of understeer versus oversteer becomes clear when the steer angle is plotted against the centripetal acceleration while the radius R is kept constant. In Fig. 1.10 left-hand diagram this is done for three types of vehicles showing understeer, neutral steer and...
