TY - JOUR PY - 2005// TI - Study of a Vehicle Dynamics Model for Improving Roll Stability JO - Review of automotive engineering A1 - Takano, S. A1 - Suzuki, Mitsuru A1 - Nagai, Michiaki A1 - Taniguchi, Toshiyo SP - 169 EP - 176 VL - 26 IS - 2 N2 - To analyze the effect of varying the center-of-gravity of a vehicle on the vehicle's dynamic characteristics, an experimental study was conducted using a large-sized truck both with and without a load. Both dynamic and static experiments were conducted to better understand how the vehicle behaves in realistic driving situations. Magnitudes and delays of various vehicle variables were examined. Also, simulation results from a 3DOF vehicle model were compared to the experimental results to determine whether it is a sufficient representation of a large-sized vehicle for situations in which experiments with an actual vehicle are not possible.
