Adams Car

[mecwill]

Hello,
I'm Radu from TUIasi Racing and I come with a question, if anyone knows to answer.
I'm trying to make a request i can't seem to understand to do this.
I want to make a plot with the yaw velocity response to see the value of stability factor k (+US NS -OV) . On x axis i need forward velocity - easy; the hard part is to make for the other axis one variable value that would be a small calculation; a request with the following: yaw velocity/ front wheels steer angle (i'll need to create a function or a subroutine but i have no idea how i should do this).
Or, is this really necessary? Or is another quick way to analyze the behavior of the car?
Thanks for help

And who are you?

Sorry for an improper and incomplete introduction.
I am Radu.
Member of TUIasi Racing, Romania. Representing Gheorghe Asachi University
We want to participate the following year with our 2nd car in fsae competition.
I am responsable for the car dynamics. hope to succed in designing a good dynamics.

I am close to finnish it..hope - few more things i need to analyse with the steer behaviour of the car - just to know the stiffness needed for the axles suspension and arb, and n-line inclination front the tire contact patch etc. I think I understand good the things I need to analyse and to change in order to have a proper suspension system for the fsae aplication. With some DOEs I think it will take less time to pass trough iterations than other ways, but for this is will need some plots; maybe its possible to exchange information with excel - extract values from plots in adams and introduce them in excel to build the desired plots, but i guess it will take a while.

Hope the requested help its not time consuming.

Just run ISO Constant Radius test procedure. Take data to Excel. Make these plots. Use attractive colors. Take rest of day off.
