Abstract
This paper is the second one of a series of papers describing the All Terrain Vehicle “Trim Model”. The development of a four-wheeled ATV trim model is presented in this paper. Vehicle parameters such as the effect of a gear differential and an anti-roll bar on the understeer, neutral steer, oversteer characteristics were examined. The results were compared with the experiments and it was found that the trim solution was in close agreement with the experimental data.
