Abstract
ABSTRACT A14 Degrees Of Freedom vehicle handling dynamics model is presented and implemented using MATLAB/SIMULINK software. The model is used to predict the behavior of a golf car in different steering conditions. This work is focusing on the vehicle heading modeling as a part of “implementation and control of an autonomous car project” adopted by Autotronics Research Lab (ARL). The vehicle handling related degrees of freedom are calculated. The vehicle yaw rate and lateral acceleration for step and sinusoidal steering wheel excitation are computed to predict the heading of the vehicle. The model results are verified against similar work studying the steering and handling behavior of different cars. The results show good agreement with the literature results.
