Abstract

The influence of vehicle torsional stiffness on the lateral load transfer has been largely studied and are present on many publications. This work aims to go further on this evaluation, not only demonstrating how the lateral load transfer varies when the vehicle is subjected to a lateral acceleration but also evaluating, based on a robust engineering method (Taguchi), in which situation the vehicle response to external factors is significantly influenced by structural stiffness.
