The Status of Vehicle Handling in Great Britain 650257
This paper reviews the position of vehicle handling analysis in Great Britain today, with reference to product design; points out areas for further progress; and describes facilities and developments in research meeting the present and future needs of the vehicle engineer. Equipment and techniques for measuring vehicle steady-state control characteristics and tire handling data are described in principle, and reference is made to the radial ply tire, aerodynamic stability, and driver response behavior.
