Re: Steering characteristics
I understand it is hard to generalize this characteristic without considering other influencing parameters. But I would like to understand whether high/low value of cornering stiffness is better. There is a understanding that high cornering stiffness will make the vehicle very responsive (Oversteer)...

Re: Steering characteristics
Hi Everyone.. Correct me if my understanding is wrong. We all know that the relaxation length of a tire is a ratio of cornering stiffness and lateral stiffness. So increasing the cornering stiffness, increases my relaxation length which in turn increases the response time of the tire. That ultimatel...

Steering characteristics
Hi everyone! Is there a possibility to judge the under/over steer characteristics of a vehicle only with the Longitudinal force vs. Slip, Lateral force vs. Slip angle and SAT vs. Slip angle curves of a tire. I am not interested in the vehicle parameters that influences this characteristic. Thanks in...
