Vehicle Dynamics
• Vehicle dynamics focuses on these three main aspects:
• Ride• Handling• Longitudinal dynamics
![Page 11: Vehicle Dynamics & Safety](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061504/56813590550346895d9cfd31/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Vehicle Dynamics: Ride
Ride: vertical dynamics or behaviour on ondulating road profileMethods: multibody systems dynamics (left) with hundreds of d.o.f. and nonlinearities and/or vibration analysis (right) with few d.o.f. (i.e. 4)
![Page 12: Vehicle Dynamics & Safety](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061504/56813590550346895d9cfd31/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Vehicle Dynamics: Ride
Four post three axis full scale physical test
![Page 13: Vehicle Dynamics & Safety](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061504/56813590550346895d9cfd31/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Vehicle Dynamics: Ride
Ride influenced by suspension characteristics: mass, stiffness, damping, kinematics. Left McPherson, right rigid axle
![Page 14: Vehicle Dynamics & Safety](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061504/56813590550346895d9cfd31/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Vehicle Dynamics: Ride
Quality of ride must be evaluated in relation to application (sport/army or standard vehicle) and response of human being to vibration (tolerance diagram)
![Page 15: Vehicle Dynamics & Safety](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061504/56813590550346895d9cfd31/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Vehicle Dynamics: Handling
Vehicle behaviour on curved path. Methods: multibody approach with hundreds of d.o.f. and/or reduced models (i.e. Bicycle model with 3 d.o.f.)
![Page 16: Vehicle Dynamics & Safety](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061504/56813590550346895d9cfd31/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Vehicle Dynamics: Handling
Typical use of bicycle model: linear state equation relating yaw and lateral speed with steering angle, lateral speed after a step steering

Vehicle Dynamics: Handling
Bosch’s test facility is a complex track comprised of μ surfaces, traction hills, Vehicle Dynamics Area (VDA) and various other special test surfaces. The anti-lock brake test track included 2,500 ft. of acceleration and test road. The VDA features a 21-acre bituminous test pad that is 1,150 ft. long with a width from 630-880 ft. A 36 ft. x 4,300 ft. loop road to access the pad was designed with a 1,300 ft. parabolic cross section curve at the west end for testing and acceleration onto the VDA pad. Ghafari designed the original test track in 1990, as well the VDA replacement in 2008.

Vehicle Dynamics: Handling
Handling quality can be improved by a control system, based on vehicle simplified model.

Longitudinal Dynamics
Vehicle behaviour in rectilinear path. At constant speed: power absorbed, fuel consumption, max speed and max grade. Load on axles. Effect of torque distribution on axles.During braking/acceleration: optimal load distribution between axles and…

Longitudinal Dynamics
Time required to reach a given speed, gear shiftng and choice: 1-2 d.o.f. model.

Longitudinal dynamics
Longitudinal behaviour can be improved by control systems: ABS for braking and ASR/TCS (anti slip regulation, traction control system) for acceleration
