F.E. Resource- Dynamic Testing For Vehicle Rollover Threshold Using Programmable Steering Machine And Zero Roll Rate Feedback

Abstract

A Single Vehicle Accident Of A Sport Utility Vehicle Is Be Used To Describe A Typical Accident Avoidance Maneuver And Subsequent On-Road Non Trip Rollover. An Additional Objective Was To Examine Vehicle Dynamic Rollover Stability. Circumstances Of The Event Will Be Reviewed Including Results Of The Reconstruction. Test Methodology Used To Determine A Dynamic Vehicle Rollover Threshold On A Paved Road Surface Will Be Presented.
