This document contains lecture slides for a CEE320 Vehicle Dynamics course. It covers topics such as resistance forces that impede vehicle motion like aerodynamic, rolling, and grade resistance. It also discusses tractive effort, vehicle acceleration, braking forces, and stopping sight distance. Equations are provided for concepts like available tractive effort, maximum tractive effort, vehicle acceleration, braking distance, and stopping sight distance. Examples are also included, such as calculating the maximum acceleration of a Ford Mustang.

Editor's Notes
- #6: Power is in ft-lb/sec
- #7: Rolling resistance = 2 components Hysteresis = energy loss due to deformation of the tire Adhesion = bonding between tire and roadway
- #11: Low profile tires reduce r and increase tractive effort
- #13: Torque and HP always cross at 5252 RPM. Why? Look at the equation for HP
- #14: For 4WD Fmax = μW (if your 4WD distributes power to ensure wheels don’t slip, which is common)
- #15: For a front wheel drive car, sum moments about the rear tire contact point: -Rah – Wsinθh + Wcosθlr + mah - WfL = 0 cosθ = about 1 for small angles encountered -Rah – Wsinθh + Wlr + mah - WfL = 0 WfL = -Rah – Wsinθh + Wlr + mah WfL = + Wlr – Wsinθh – Rah + mah Wf = (lr/L)W + (h/L)(-Wsinθ – Ra + ma) But… Wsinθ = Rg Substituting: Wf = (lr/L)W + (h/L)(-Rg – Ra + ma) We know that… F = ma + Ra + Rrl + Rg Therefore, -F + Rrl = -ma – Ra– Rg Wf = (lr/L)W + (h/L)(-F + Rrl) Now, Fmax = μWf and Rrl = frlW Substituting: Fmax = μ((lr/L)W + (h/L)(-Fmax + frlW)) Simplifying: Fmax + (μh/L)Fmax = μ((lr/L)W + (h/L)(frlW)) Fmax(1 + μh/L) =( μW/L)((lr + hfrl)
- #17: Tire size P = passenger car 1st number = tire section width (sidewall to sidewall) in mm 2nd number = aspect ratio (sidewall height to width) in tenths (e.g. 60 = 0.60) 3rd number = wheel diameter
- #20: Practical comes from V22 = V12 + 2ad (basic physics equation or rectilinear motion) a = 11.2 ft/sec2 is the assumption This is conservative and used by AASHTO Is equal to 0.35 g’s of deceleration (11.2/32.2) Is equal to braking efficiency x coefficient of road adhesion γb = 1.04 usually
