  3. SAE Axis System

  4. ISO Axis System

  5. Rolling Resistance (My) Produced by hysteresis in tire tread and sidewall rubber My = (Fz)(x)

  6. Braking Force (Fx) S = (V – wR) / V 0 < S < 1

  7. Braking Force (Fx) S = (V – wR) / V 0 < S < 1 Longitudinal Stiffness, CS, is the slope of the Fx vs. S curve at S=0

  8. Driving Force (Fx) S = (wR-V) / wR 0 < S < 1

  9. Lateral Force (Fy) and Aligning Moment (Mz)

  10. Lateral Force (Fy) and Aligning Moment (Mz) Cornering Stiffness, C, is the slope of the Fy vs.  curve at =0

  11. Effect of Camber Angle () on Lateral Force (Fy)

  12. Combined Slip (Fx AND Fy)

  13. Overturning Moment (Mx)

  14. Characterizing a Pneumatic Tire: Physical Testing

  15. Characterizing a Pneumatic Tire: Physical Testing

  16. Data From Physical Tests Consider how Fx varies with S: 20 data points Consider how Fx varies with Fz, S,,  : 204= 160 000 data points Consider how Fx varies with Fz and S: 202= 400 data points x5 = 800 000 data points

  17. Pacejka 2002 : 117 parameters needed • Very good fit to experimental data • More complicated force and moment equations Tire Models: Mathematical Functions to Fit Measured Data Fiala: 6 parameters needed to describe a tire • Easy to understand the physical significance of all parameters • Simple force and moment equations. • Does not handle combined slip • Effects of normal force and camber are largely ignored.

  18. C2 C1 P2 P1 How Tire Forces are Included In Multibody Vehicle Model 1. Define a point where tire forces and moments will act on the multibody model

  19. How Tire Forces are Included In Multibody Vehicle Model 2. Determine an expression for the vertical tire force, Fz, which is required as an input to the tire model.
