Abstract

This Section introduces the forces and moments that are generated in the tire contact patch with an emphasis on their representation in a vehicle handling model. Fundamental definitions such as slip ratio and relaxation length are provided. Example plots are shown to illustrate typical tire force and moment characteristics.
