This study presents the dynamics of a 15-DOF model of the vehicle by performing simulations to investigate the vehicle handling dynamics in J-turn maneuver. Using Newton’s equations of motion, the equations of motion for the sprung and unsprung masses are all written in the vehicle coordinate system and the tire is modeled with the Pacejka 89 model. Since the engine crankshaft has a rotation relative to the vehicle coordinate system, in order to investigate the effect of the engine gyroscopic moments on the vehicle handling dynamics, the effect of the crankshaft rotation on the torque vector of external forces is considered. The direction of crankshaft rotation can change the direction of engine rotation in the direction of the wheels rotation or in the opposite direction of their rotation, which causes some changes in the gyroscopic torque vector of the engine. Due to the rotation speed of the crankshaft and its moment of inertia, the gyroscopic moments which resulted from the angular momentum of the engine crankshaft are considerable. These gyroscopic moments are added to the torque equation of external forces in the vehicle coordinate system and affect the vehicle handling dynamics. By using the numerical method of Newmark, vehicle’s dynamic behavior is investigated and the validation of its dynamic behavior is done by ADAMS/Car software. This study shows that in transverse engine, if the direction of engine rotation is in the opposite direction of the wheels, the vehicle handling dynamics is improved.
