Determining Dynamics System Parameters

On March 7th I’ll be doing a Dynamics 102 session on dynamics specific terminology and topics which would be good to use to get a general understanding of these parameters (hopefully there will be a record up soon after, but no guarantees). This task is to look at solar and consumer cars to find out what the standard ranges are for each parameter. Think of it as a tolerancing task, determining the standard upper and lower thresholds which these parameters fall in. If you want to get a head start, some of the parameters I would like you to look into would be:

Camber

Caster

Toe

Scrub Radius

King Pin Inclination
