SUMMARY • Lateral Force Characteristics : Fy • Self Aligning Torque Characteristics : Mz • Longitudinal Force Characteristics : Fx • Influence of Fx on Fy & Mz • Magic Formula
TIRE FORCE GENERATION SAE tire axis system
TIRE FORCE GENERATION The Pneumatic tire is a complex system with Multiples inputs and outputs!
CORNERING FORCE CHARACTERISTICS sliding adhesion
DERIVATION OF CORNERING FORCE CHARACTERISTICS Deflection: Normal Force Distribution: Max. Normal Force Distribution:
DERIVATION OF CORNERING FORCE CHARACTERISTICS Define: Stiffness of a brush element Transition to sliding (xt) found by equating :
DERIVATION OF CORNERING FORCE CHARACTERISTICS Now, find Fy by integrations: • From –a to –xt for the sliding part • From –xt to a for the adhesion part Hw: Derive the above equation and show that Fy=mu*Fz for large alpha!!!
WARNING • Up to now we tried to understand what to expect from cornering force generation based on theoretical modeling and (simple) assumptions. • Starting from this point on, we will analyze experimental results. • You will observe that while our theoretical prediction seems to be quite good, it is in general not accurate enough to model the complex behavior of the tire. • You will investigate more complex analytical & empirical tire models in your HW: Dugoff, Allen, STI, etc
CORNERING FORCE CHARACTERISTICS Will be explained later
CORNERING FORCE CHARACTERISTICS • Cornering stiffness is the change in lateral force per unit slip angle change at a specified normal load in the linear range of the tire.

CORNERING FORCE CHARACTERISTICS • Camber stiffness is the change in lateral force per unit camber angle change at a specified normal load in the linear range of the tire.

SAT CHARACTERISTICS • Self-Aligning Torque is derived from a combination of caster trail and the tires own pneumatic trail. • If the mechanical (caster) trail is small the tires aligning torque (Pneumatic Trail) will dominate the steering effect. • Pneumatic trail is derived from the shear force distribution in the tire footprint.
SAT CHARACTERISTICS Caster trail
SAT CHARACTERISTICS Pneumatic trail
Fx CHARACTERISTICS • Slip Ratio • Slip ratio is defined as the slip velocity as a percentage of the free rolling velocity. • Since • then
Fx CHARACTERISTICS Slip Ratio definition (SAE J670) re = effective rolling radius for free rolling @ = 0
Influence of Fx on Fy (braking)
WARNING • Up to here, we saw a simple analytical tire model and provided a lot of experimental findings. • We saw that our simple analytical tire model is not accurate enough as it does not accurately model at least • the peaking behavior, • The dependence on longitudinal slip • Etc... • Complex analytical models are hard to derive and are out of the scope of this course • But we can at this point introduce a simple empirical tire model : the Magic Formula, which has become a standard in vehicle dynamics simulation.
Magic Formula • Combined Slip Formulation: • Pure Slip Formulation: • Shaping Function:
