Lateral Acceleration
Lateral Acceleration is the acceleration in the lateral direction when the vehicle is cornering.
Symbol: Ay
Measurement: AccelerationUnit: m/s²
Note: Value can be positive or negative.
Front Lateral Load Transfer
Front Lateral Load Transfer is the load transfer on to the front wheels due to lateral acceleration.
Symbol: Wf
Measurement: WeightUnit: kg
Note: Value can be positive or negative.
Horizontal Distance of C.G. from Rear Axle
Horizontal Distance of C.G. from Rear Axle is the distance of vehicle's center of gravity(C.G.) from rear axle measured along wheelbase of vehicle.
Symbol: x
Measurement: LengthUnit: m
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
Wheelbase of Vehicle
Wheelbase of Vehicle is the center distance between the front and the rear axle of the vehicle.
Symbol: b
Measurement: LengthUnit: m
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
Front Roll Centre Height
Front Roll Centre Height is the height of the notional point at which the cornering forces in the suspension are reacted to the vehicle body.

Measurement: Torsion ConstantUnit: Nm/rad
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
Rear Roll Rate
Rear Roll Rate is the stiffness of your car in the roll mode. Or one can say, it is the roll angle per unit lateral acceleration.
Symbol: KΦr
Measurement: Torsion ConstantUnit: Nm/rad
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
