ABSTRACT:
A method of land vehicle suspension evaluation and design through roll angle analysis. The method is based on predicting front roll angle and rear roll angle for a given road bank angle and lateral vehicle force. Method steps include determining a vehicle front section sprung weight, determining a vehicle rear section sprung weight, predicting a front roll angle, predicting a rear roll angle, comparing the predicted front roll angle XXXX to the predicted rear roll angle, and changing suspension components XXXXXXXX until the predicted front roll angle equals the predicted rear roll angle. Benefits associated with equalizing the front and rear roll angles include improved vehicle stability, increased total vehicle tractive capacity, and better handling.
