Abstract
In order to develop a new method for improving cornering speed in ground vehicles, an actuated vertical stabilizer was developed. A conceptual model was created using SolidWorks to determine appropriate airfoil parameters. A set of governing equations for vehicle roll stability was generated and used to simulate the critical velocity using MATLAB. A sample IndyCar oval track configuration was simulated showing an increase in cornering speed of approximately 2.18 mph and 13.10 mph for 100 ft and 300 ft radii turns respectively.
