A limited slip differential can offer many benefits over a standard differential. A standard differential is limited by the traction available at the wheel with the lowest friction. A limited slip differential offers the ability to bias torque from the wheel with little traction to the wheel with better traction. This can offer improved mobility and handling characteristics. Oftentimes, one must be improved at the expense of the other. For a speed sensitive limited slip differential, mobility can be improved by aggressive tuning. This would normally give adverse handling effects, due to the aggressiveness. If the differential is tuned for handling characteristics, mobility will be compromised, due to the moderate tuning. To optimise the performance, tuning must be adjustable according to the vehicle's input parameters. This paper will show the benefits of adjustable tuning in handling, mobility, and compatibility with ether vehicle systems, such as ABS, Traction Control, and Stability Control.
