3 Vehicle History - The BMW 3 Series BMW's sporty compact executive sedan

4 Vehicle History - The BMW 3 Series In continuous production since 1975, it has seen six generations: E21, E30, E36, E46, E90, and F30 E21 ('75-'82) E30 ('83-'91) E36 ('92-'99) E46 ('99-'05) E90 ('06-'11) F30 ('12-present)

5 Vehicle Comparison 1987 BMW 325is Base Price $27, Price $58,012 Engine/Power 2.5 I6 / 168 HP Weight/Distribution 53% / 47% 1987 Volvo 760 Turbo Base Price $28, Price $60,222 Engine/Power 2.3 I4 / 160 HP Weight/Distribution 56% / 44%

6 Vehicle History - The BMW 3 Series It has always used a semi-trailing arm rear suspension setup, which aids in the car's highly acclaimed handling characteristics

7 Other Vehicle Information Garage Measurements Weight: 2825 lbs Distribution: 53.5%/46.5% Rear Deflection/Weight: 1.0 Inch / 200 lbs Front Deflection/Weight: 0.75 Inch / 200 lbs

8 Weight Distribution & Tire Patch Forces OBJECTIVES: 1. Define vehicle coordinate system 2. Define weight distribution 3. Describe weight center location 4. Define the vehicle system tire patch forces 5. Calculate tire patch forces during acceleration

9 Vehicle iso coordinate system Calculations base on iso coordinate system X-axis-linear velocity Y-axis-lateral velocity Z-axis-yaw velocity

10 Weight distribution & Weight center location In a vehicle which relies on gravity in some way, weight distribution directly affects a variety of vehicle characteristics, including handling, acceleration, traction, and component life. For this reason weight distribution varies with the vehicle's intended usage. The height of the vehicle s center of gravity affects the vehicle s acceleration and braking based on the amount of weight transfer. Vehicles with lower centers of gravity are able to create larger cornering forces, since they hold lower rolling moments on the X-Axis.

11 Vehicle system tire patch forces Tire patch forces are the amount of force transmitted from the body to the tires, which ultimately is passed on to the road. The tire patch forces are a function of the weight distribution and the vehicle s acceleration in the X and Y Axis. Longitudinal tire patch forces provide acceleration and braking, while lateral tire patch forces are responsible for cornering.
