AI Thread Summary
To calculate the force exerted by the obstacle on the tire, the reaction force can be determined using the wheel's mass, velocity, and the height of the obstacle. Given the parameters, the normal force can be calculated, which acts on both the vertical and horizontal axes during impact. The tire's pressure, stiffness, and suppression will influence the amount of force absorbed, but a portion will remain unabsorbed, contributing to the torque. The normal force does perform work, particularly in lifting the wheel and dissipating kinetic energy. Understanding the relationship between force and work is essential for analyzing the impact dynamics.

Hi there, I have a project of torsion bar. I need to know value of force is making a torque on it.

So I have a velocity V=40km/h, mass per wheel m=530kg, radius of wheel R=290 mm and heigh of obstacle h = 6 cm. What will be the reaction N, on both axis, of obstacle to tire? I have no idea how to calculate that.

Also, tire pressure is p = 0,2 MPa, tire stiffnes k = 150 000 N/m and tire supression is c= 150 Ns/m as tire will absorb some of impact force, but what value of force won;t be absorbed?

Does the normal force do any work?
 
At axis Y it lifts wheel and axis X it is responsible for loosing some kinetic energy.
 
Is that a "yes"?
Do you know a relationship between force and work?
 

Thread 'Race car suspension Class'

Posted June 2024 - 15 years after starting this class. I have learned a whole lot. To get to the short course on making your stock car, late model, hobby stock E-mod handle, look at the index below. Read all posts on Roll Center, Jacking effect and Why does car drive straight to the wall when I gas it? Also read You really have two race cars. This will cover 90% of problems you have. Simply put, the car pushes going in and is loose coming out. You do not have enuff downforce on the right...

Thread 'Physics of Stretch: What pressure does a band apply on a cylinder?'

Scenario 1 (figure 1) A continuous loop of elastic material is stretched around two metal bars. The top bar is attached to a load cell that reads force. The lower bar can be moved downwards to stretch the elastic material. The lower bar is moved downwards until the two bars are 1190mm apart, stretching the elastic material. The bars are 5mm thick, so the total internal loop length is 1200mm (1190mm + 5mm + 5mm). At this level of stretch, the load cell reads 45N tensile force. Key numbers...

Thread 'Cantilever help'

I'm trying to decide what size and type of galvanized steel I need for 2 cantilever extensions. The cantilever is 5 ft. The space between the two cantilever arms is a 17 ft Gap the center 7 ft of the 17 ft Gap we'll need to Bear approximately 17,000 lb spread evenly from the front of the cantilever to the back of the cantilever over 5 ft. I will put support beams across these cantilever arms to support the load evenly
