Roll rate or Roll stiffness Formula Elements

Variables
Roll Rate/ Roll Stiffness
Roll Rate/ Roll Stiffness is the measure of a racing car's tire behavior, describing how the tire responds to roll and maintains contact with the racing surface.
Symbol: KΦ
Measurement: Torsion ConstantUnit: Nm/rad
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
Track Width of Vehicle
Track Width of Vehicle is the distance between the centerlines of the left and right tires, affecting the racing car's stability and handling performance.
Symbol: a

How to Evaluate Roll rate or Roll stiffness?

Roll rate or Roll stiffness evaluator uses Roll Rate/ Roll Stiffness = ((Track Width of Vehicle^2)*Wheel Rate of Vehicle)/2 to evaluate the Roll Rate/ Roll Stiffness, Roll rate or Roll stiffness formula is defined as a measure of the resistance of a vehicle's roll axis to roll, which is a critical parameter in vehicle dynamics, affecting the vehicle's handling, stability, and safety, and is used to quantify the roll stiffness of a vehicle's suspension system. Roll Rate/ Roll Stiffness is denoted by KΦ symbol.

FAQs on Roll rate or Roll stiffness

What is the formula to find Roll rate or Roll stiffness?
The formula of Roll rate or Roll stiffness is expressed as Roll Rate/ Roll Stiffness = ((Track Width of Vehicle^2)*Wheel Rate of Vehicle)/2. Here is an example- 72 = ((1.2^2)*100)/2.
How to calculate Roll rate or Roll stiffness?
With Track Width of Vehicle (a) & Wheel Rate of Vehicle (Kt) we can find Roll rate or Roll stiffness using the formula - Roll Rate/ Roll Stiffness = ((Track Width of Vehicle^2)*Wheel Rate of Vehicle)/2.
Can the Roll rate or Roll stiffness be negative?
No, the Roll rate or Roll stiffness, measured in Torsion Constant cannot be negative.
Which unit is used to measure Roll rate or Roll stiffness?
Roll rate or Roll stiffness is usually measured using the Newton Meter per Radian[Nm/rad] for Torsion Constant. Newton Centimeter per Radian[Nm/rad] are the few other units in which Roll rate or Roll stiffness can be measured.
