Abstract
This research proposes a parameter scaling method for dimensional analysis in extreme maneuver scenarios. Scaled vehicle experiments using dimensional analysis offer advantages in terms of test location, driver safety, and cost savings. Previous studies have overlooked the nonlinear effects of tires in dimensional analysis. Two methods are presented: scaling the frictional coefficient between tires and surfaces and virtual scaling of gravitational acceleration through time scaling. The methods were validated using a 1/8 scaled vehicle and the CarSim software program. This research establishes a practical and valid approach to parameter scaling in vehicle dynamics, considering tire nonlinearity and accommodating extreme maneuvers.
期刊介绍:
The International Journal of Automotive Technology has as its objective the publication and dissemination of original research in all fields of AUTOMOTIVE TECHNOLOGY, SCIENCE and ENGINEERING. It fosters thus the exchange of ideas among researchers in different parts of the world and also among researchers who emphasize different aspects of the foundations and applications of the field.
Standing as it does at the cross-roads of Physics, Chemistry, Mechanics, Engineering Design and Materials Sciences, AUTOMOTIVE TECHNOLOGY is experiencing considerable growth as a result of recent technological advances. The Journal, by providing an international medium of communication, is encouraging this growth and is encompassing all aspects of the field from thermal engineering, flow analysis, structural analysis, modal analysis, control, vehicular electronics, mechatronis, electro-mechanical engineering, optimum design methods, ITS, and recycling. Interest extends from the basic science to technology applications with analytical, experimental and numerical studies.
The emphasis is placed on contributions that appear to be of permanent interest to research workers and engineers in the field. If furthering knowledge in the area of principal concern of the Journal, papers of primary interest to the innovative disciplines of AUTOMOTIVE TECHNOLOGY, SCIENCE and ENGINEERING may be published. Papers that are merely illustrations of established principles and procedures, even though possibly containing new numerical or experimental data, will generally not be published.
When outstanding advances are made in existing areas or when new areas have been developed to a definitive stage, special review articles will be considered by the editors.
No length limitations for contributions are set, but only concisely written papers are published. Brief articles are considered on the basis of technical merit.
