Vehicles with More Than Two Axles

• A front-wheel-steering of 4WD vehicle
that is turning to the left, as shown in
Figure below.
• When the vehicle is moving very slowly,
there is a kinematic condition between
the inner and outer wheels that allows
them to turn slip-free. The condition is
called the Ackerman condition and is
expressed by:
Where, δi is the steer angle of the inner wheel
and
δo is the steer angle of the outer wheel.
where δ is the cot-average of
the inner and outer steer
angles.
