Abstract

This paper presents development and application of a tire hardware-in-the-loop simulator (HILS) for evaluating vehicle dynamics. Tire HILS is a combination of a simulation (vehicle model) and an experiment (tires) part. The key to HILS is that simulation and experiment work is done together in the same time as a real time simulation. In this paper, analysis of handling and stabilities of a vehicle in plane motion is proposed. From the results, it can be stated that the response of the vehicle simulated on Tire HILS significantly gets closer to a real vehicle, as compared to simulation by off-line linear tire model.
