SECTION-B
2. Explain empirical and analytical methods for understanding of vehicle dynamics
performance, along with its benefits and limitations.
3. Draw Tyre axis system along with forces and moments.
4. Write down the requirements of a vehicle suspension system.
5. Define Neutral Steer, Under steer & Over steer conditions and explain how these
conditions affect the performance of the vehicle. Also discuss the parameters that can be
varied to change the condition.
6. Derive Tractive force for traction limited acceleration.

SECTION-C

7. Find out the natural frequency and amplitude ratio in terms of ?m? and ?k? for the system
shown below. Take m
1
= m; m
2
= 2m; k
1
= k
2
= k
3
= k.

8. Derive an expression to find the normal reactions at the front and rear wheels considering
the stability of a vehicle on a slope of ?, to the horizontal. Also discuss, the limiting value
for ?, if it is increased gradually (i) either the vehicle is about to overturn (ii) the vehicle is
about to slide down the slope.
9. Discuss the stability of vehicle on a slope and running on a curved track.
