This week, we feature some beautiful footage from the IMSA 12h at Sebring, a track renowned for its challenging bumps. This footage isn’t just a treat for the eyes; it’s a practical lesson in vehicle dynamics! One of the things to observe is a great demonstration of the vehicle showing itself to be an an over-constrained system. With four wheels, it has one more than necessary to manage its six degrees of freedom and maintain equilibrium. Consequently, a bump affecting the vertical load at one wheel directly impacts the other three, creating a complex interplay of forces that influence the vehicle’s state. This behaviour can be fine-tuned through adjustments to spring stiffness and damping rates. Beyond sensor data, observing these dynamics in action really offers some profound insights into performance, Reminding us that sometimes, our own eyes are the best tools for understanding the principles of vehicle dynamics. Don’t neglect them! #beinspired

As more automated systems are introduced into vehicles to help people be better drivers, it will get harder to determine the root cause of road collisions. TRL has a specialist service for Police collision investigators to support them when faced with a crash scene involving vehicles with systems such as automated lane keep (ALKS) or intelligent speed assistance (ISA) which could be on concept vehicles being driven around the UK as part of trials. Partly funded by the DfT, TRL provides guidance on investigating whether a car accident was due to human error, or machine fault/failure. All learnings from these investigations will be shared across FCIUs in anticipation of automated systems being permitted on new vehicles sold in the UK. Details of how to access this specialist technical service can be found here: https://bit.ly/3T2wme5

Nice roundup of safety stories with commentary that my readers might have missed. A general thought from reading the Waymo story (see my comment on that post thread as well): People tend to judge the severity of a computer-based system defect on how easy the fix is. They should instead be asking what other safety-relevant defects might have been caused by the same issues that resulted in this defect escaping to the field. There is never only one cockroach.

Electronic stability control, or ESC, has been a standard feature in vehicles since the 2012 model year. With that being said, diagnosing false activation with ABS and stability control systems has become more common as these vehicles have aged. Let’s explore the complexity of ESC, the challenges that come with maintaining these systems and how to diagnose them in this Continental Tire Garage Studio video.
