“Dynamic Balancing of the Vehicle while Cornering” is the concept to avoid Roll-Over of the vehicle and provide comfort to the passengers while cornering by tilting the vehicle opposite to the centrifugal force to cancel it, which leads to shift of C.G point of vehicle and provide comfort to the Passengers.

2. INTRODUCTION
Basic requirement of vehicle - to provide comfort as well as
safety .
But while cornering at high speed , it tilts causing discomfort
and chances of accidents by rollover of vehicle .
Because of the centrifugal force acting on vehicle CG get
displaced which leads to tilting of the vehicle in the opposite
direction of cornering.
Hence to minimize this phenomenon....
Why we are not tilting it to opposite side...???
3. TILTING ?
Tilting of the passenger
cockpit with respect to
Vertical plane along the
Longitudinal axis of vehicle.
The cockpit tilted in the same direction of turning , keeping the
chassis normal .
Because of this, CG get tilted canceling the shifting of weight
which is produced due to the centrifugal force acting on it while
high speed cornering.

10. TILTING MECHANISMS
BY POWER SCREW
BY USING PNEUMATIC ACTUATORS
BY USING HYDRAULIC ACTUATORS
BY USING ELECTROMECHANICAL ACTUATOR
BY STEPPER MOTOR
12. Sliding velocity for non-tilting car =14.34m/s
( 51.624kmph )
Overturning velocity for the same =13.06m/s
( 47.03kmph )
Whereas for a tilting car that can tilt 13 degrees into the curve
Sliding velocity =16.002m/s =57.62kmph
Overturning velocity =16.5m/s = 59.24 kmph
Increase in sliding velocity = 11.61475%
Increase in overturning velocity =25.94%
13. ADVANTAGE
This design improves flexibility.
Reduces risk of accident.
Provides Dynamic comfort.
Life span of tire increases.
14. FUTURE SCOPE…
The car design in itself is futuristic and can be soon find in
some production versions of four-wheeled tilting cars.
A feature can be added to the existing suspension using a
minor programming change.
We can use this mechanism in heavy vehicles and trailors.
15. CONCLUSION..
Increase the threshold velocity of a Tilting car in a curve.
It help to balance the centrifugal force on vehicle.
ESP with rollover mitigation function helps the driver to stay
on road and to avoid tripping obstacles by yaw control.
