回复 anordinaryman 的帖子 Actually I do not really understand "necessary but not sufficient condition". To my understanding of this sentence "A rollover situation can only occur if there is enough friction between the tires and road to create sufficient centripetal force" from the article, is that, if the friction between the tires and road is not enough to create sufficient centripetal force, a rollover will not occur. Therefore, if your car runs with a set of tires with less traction travelling at the same corner, at the same speed, the tendency of rollover will be reduced. However, the car will be more reluctant to make the corner, which is what so called "understeer". |
If you need to accelarate the car to a certain speed, the accelaration force must equal to friction (ideal condition). If a car moving around the corner, the centripetal force must equal to the frictional force. Otherwise, the car can not move around the corner and it will go straight instead. This centripetal force will generate an uplift force (a force component) which will destabilize the vechicle and it may rollover due to this uplift. Therefore, I do not see why the frictional force (traction) is not related to rollover. I have a different answer to your question, I think the answer should be yes. If you do not roll your car with a set of tires with lesser traction, you can run your car with a set of tire with better traction, and you can actually travelling the corner with even higher speed. That's why, the F-1 car has a set of fresher tires can attack the car in front with worn tires. However, if the car with a set of tires with lesser traction and already in the speed limit of rollover (it can just make the corner with a certain speed without rolling), the car with a set of higher traction tires can also make it with the same speed, but not over this speed, and my answer is yes again. Also, if you are driving a car and you feel that it will rollover at one corner, you will drive slower than the critical speed for this corner. If you have a car that you know it will just go understeer in one corner, you actually can attack this corner. Why? Because you can do nothing if the car start to roll, but you can control understeer by releasing the throttle. If you ask the Tamiya M03 racer or even drive the M03, you will know more. |
