  2. Bump steer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bump_steer

    For example, if the front left wheel rolls over a bump it will compress the suspension on that corner and automatically rotate to the left (toe out), causing the car to turn itself left momentarily without any input from the steering wheel. Another example, is that when most vehicles become airborne their front wheels will noticeably toe in.

  3. Countersteering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Countersteering

    Here, a scooter is countersteered to turn left. When countersteering to turn right, the following is performed: [5] [6] A torque on the handlebars to the left is applied. The front wheel will then rotate about the steering axis to the left and the tire will generate forces in the contact patch to the left. The machine as a whole steers to the left.

  5. Steering kickback - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steering_kickback

    Steering kickback is distinct from torque steering, bump steer or roll steer. These are similar outside influences that affect the direction of travel, but they do not cause a movement at the driver's wheel. Force feedback sim racing wheels and drive by wire wheels have motors to simulate steering kickback.

  6. Dynamic steering response - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dynamic_steering_response

    In situations where the vehicle is traveling at high speeds, the DSR system will tighten the steering wheel and lower the steering ratio to allow the vehicle to travel in a stable direction. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] The steering wheel will be set in place rather than having the driver hold the wheel tightly to prevent it from shaking.

  7. Electronic stability control - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electronic_stability_control

    The desired vehicle state is determined based upon the steering wheel angle, its gradient, and the wheel speed. Simultaneously, the yaw sensor measures the vehicle's actual yaw rate. The controller computes the needed brake or acceleration force for each wheel and directs the valves of the hydraulic modulator.

  8. Scrub radius - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scrub_radius

    The point where the steering axis line contacts the road is the fulcrum pivot point on which the tire is turned. Scrub radius is changed whenever there is a change in wheel offset. For example, when the wheels are pushed out from the body of the car the scrub radius becomes more positive.
