TY - JOUR PY - 2009// TI - Analysis of on-center steering feel by a steering simulator JO - Transactions of Society of Automotive Engineers of Japan A1 - Yamada, Daisuke A1 - Kuroyanagi, Hiroshi A1 - Ono, Eiichi A1 - Kushiro, Ikuo A1 - Konomi, Kenji A1 - Sato, Shinsuke SP - 239 EP - 244 VL - 40 IS - 2 N2 - The purpose of this work is to analyze on-center steering feel by using a steering simulator. Firstly, it is revealed that the steering feel is evaluated based on equality of sensation while steering and the sensation is derived from steering torque and stiffness of steering system. Next, perceptual and discrimination characteristics of both the steering torque and the stiffness of steering system were examined. Finally, ideal steering characteristic which can provide the equal sensation is formulated by the perceptual characteristics. Moreover, it is confirmed that steering characteristics whose steering feel are highly evaluated are strongly correlate with the ideal characteristic.
