Does the center of gravity really migrate so far laterally that the force-based roll center is significantly different from the kinematic roll center? Is it not just the sine of the roll angle, which is a few degrees at most?
A couple of things to clarify. Firstly unless the car is really badly sprung the lateral movement of the c.g is quite limited. However one thing to bear in mind the concept of the kinematic roll centre really is very dated. What drives the forces and moments is the force application point. That is the key.
Takes the 'black art' away from suspension geometry. Very interesting.
id love to see a graph on anti dive front and anti lift rear braking, thank you
