A
3
Q
draw a graph of lateral focre vs slip angle and label the regions.
give the maximum lateral force in those reigons
A
4
Q
what is ackerman steering geormetry
A
Inner wheel turning angle > outward steering angle
All tires turn around a common centre point
5
Q
what is anti-ackerman steering geormetry
A
Inner wheel turning angle < outward steering angle
All tires don’t turn around a common centre point
6
Q
