The steady-state performance of experimental four-wheeled vehicle HSFV1 on curved track (TN-DYN-051)

Last updated on 13 December 2013 2:06

The steady-state behaviour of experimental vehicle HSFV 1 on curves is investigated both by roller-rig simulation and by track experiments. The experimental behaviour is compared with that predicted by linear theory. A favourable comparison is obtained, confirming that the vehicle is self-steering within a certain range of track curvatures...
