Research on Mechanical Conditions of Vehicle Rollover at Corners

Abstract:

Vehicle rollover refers to a dangerous lateral movement of a vehicle in contact with the ground when it rotates around its longitudinal axis to a certain angle degree or greater angle during moving. There are many factors that could cause the vehicle's rollover, including automotive structures, road conditions and the driver's condition. vehicle rollover can be divided into two categories, one category is tripped rollover (trPPiedorllover), the other is a rollover (maneuve curve caused by motion: niduecdorllove) The former refers to the generation of lateral slip when the vehicle is moving, and the obstacle on the road surface collides sideways with it its "tripped" The latter refers to the rollover caused by the vertical reaction force inside the wheels of the vehicle reaching to zero because sideways acceleration of the has exceeded a certain limit when the vehicle moves on the road (including a lateral ramp). In this paper, only the rollover caused by curvilinear motion will be studied.
