Influences of the Front Wheel Steering Angle on Vehicle Handling and Stability

Abstract:

In this paper, motion differential equation of the two degrees of freedom (2-DOF) vehicle is established based on the linear two degrees of freedom vehicle model and is derived without simplifying the front wheel steering angle (FWSA), then we analyze the vehicle's steady-state response , transient response and the amplitude-frequency characteristic of yaw velocity under different FWSA with the help of the matlab software and finally compare the results with the simplified ones to determine how the FWSA influences the level of the vehicle handling and stability (VHS). The results show that: while the FWSA is small, it has a less influence on vehicle handling and stability, the FWSA is large, it has a greater influence on vehicle handling and stability.
