Polytech. Transp. Eng.

The advantages of the variable-geometry system are the simple structure, low energy consumption and low cost. During maneuvers the variable-geometry system modifies the camber angle of the front wheels in order to improve road stability. The system affects both the chassis roll angle and the half-track change. Moreover, the tracking error of the reference yaw rate can also be reduced. In the paper the challenges and possibilities of the variable geometry suspension system are analyzed. ER -
