What are the drawbacks of anti-roll bar?
Because an anti-roll bar connects wheels on opposite sides of the vehicle, the bar transmits the force of a bump on one wheel to the opposite wheel. On rough or broken pavement, anti-roll bars can produce jarring, side-to-side body motions (a "waddling" sensation), which increase in severity with the diameter and stiffness of the sway bars. Other suspension techniques can delay or dampen this effect of the connecting bar. Excessive roll stiffness, typically achieved by configuring an anti-roll bar too aggressively, can make the inside wheels lift off the ground during hard cornering. This can be used to advantage: many front-wheel-drive production cars lift a rear wheel when cornering hard in order to overload the opposite wheel, limiting understeer.
How to Calculate Tyre Rate given Required Anti-Roll Bar Rate?
Tyre Rate given Required Anti-Roll Bar Rate calculator uses Tyre Vertical Rate = (((Required Anti Roll Bar Rate+Wheel Centre Rate*(Track Width of Vehicle^2)/2)*Assumed Initial Roll Rate)/((Required Anti Roll Bar Rate+Wheel Centre Rate*(Track Width of Vehicle^2)/2)-Assumed Initial Roll Rate))*2/Track Width of Vehicle^2 to calculate the Tyre Vertical Rate, The Tyre rate given required anti-roll bar rate formula is used to find the spring rate of tyre controlled by the tyre compound, sidewall stiffness and operating pressure. Tyre Vertical Rate is denoted by Kt symbol.
How to calculate Tyre Rate given Required Anti-Roll Bar Rate using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Tyre Rate given Required Anti-Roll Bar Rate, enter Required Anti Roll Bar Rate (Ka), Wheel Centre Rate (Kw), Track Width of Vehicle (a) & Assumed Initial Roll Rate (KΦ) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Tyre Rate given Required Anti-Roll Bar Rate calculation can be explained with given input values -> 321326.7 = (((89351+35239*(1.2^2)/2)*76693)/((89351+35239*(1.2^2)/2)-76693))*2/1.2^2.
