Abstract

The steering system is the most vital element in any automobile. It helps the driver to keep control on the manoeuvring of the vehicle and it also provides stability to it. The major problems during design in Steering System is, to control bump steer, camber changes during cornering and slipping of tires. To minimise these problems, effect on Steering System, a proper designing procedure is followed and analysed in Lotus SHARK v5.01. Through that, the performance of Steering System is substantially improved. This study describes the design and optimizing of the steering system, of an ATV (All Terrain Vehicle).
