Yeah, I'm pretty sure pacejka increases with more Fz.
At a certain point I assume, the wheel can no longer generate that kind of force though.
I wish there was a better reference for pacejka online, though.
No, you're explaining yourself fine! I'm new here myself, and I appreciate your help.
I'm using the pacejka magic formula to calculate lateral force, it is explained in detail here: http://www.racer.nl/reference/pacejka.htm
Basically, it models the relation between slip angle (difference...
Interesting, I'll definitely look into those.
Would you say that the sway bar is the only thing (other than the vertical springs) that resists the roll?
Right now my simulation is giving me incredibly unrealistic results, which results in massive normal forces at the tires (the springs in the...
I am trying to model all the forces a car suspension could undergo, for this car game of mine.
I am using the pacejka model to model the tyre, so that's not important, but I do need to understand how a car would transfer its weight under load.
I am using the following to calculate the load...
