The experimental assessment of dynamic tire handling performance
conference paper
Testing of steady state tire handling performance is nowadays common practice with slip angle sweeps and breaking being simulated in the laboratory with drum or flat belt, or on the road with a test trailer. In recent years, more emphasis is put on dynamic tire models, motivated by ride comfort analysis, durability analysis, the performance of active control devices and alike. Such models require new test procedures and test facilities. For this purpose, four different test facilities have been derived at the Delft University of Technology. The paper discusses these dynamic test benches as well as the test procedures being designed for them, with reference to model validation and paramter-assessment.
