AI Technical Summary
When automakers develop multiple models on a platform, the steering system has multiple hard points, which limits the optimization of the steering ratio and makes it difficult to quickly and effectively assess the fluctuation of the ratio.
A steering system model was constructed using a dual rotary joint model, including upper fork, lower fork, and column adjustment modeling. By adjusting the parameterized phase angle and column position, the universal joint structure of the real vehicle was simulated, and the transmission ratio fluctuation was quickly adjusted.
It enables rapid and accurate assessment of steering ratio fluctuations without altering the human-machine interface hardpoints, improving the accuracy of simulation results and achieving universality and performance balance across different vehicle models.
