The paper gives an introductory treatment of the handling, stability and vibrating behaviour of two-axle, two-track single unit road vehicles in combined lateral and yaw directions. The treatment is divided into two chapters. The first deals with the steady-state cornering behaviour and properties of disturbed motions. The chapter starts out with a discussion of tyre force and moment generation properties. The second chapter deals with the vibrations of front wheel assemblies. An extensive discussion is given of the in-plane and out-of-plane tyre dynamic behaviour. Unstable shimmy motions and forced wheel vibrations illustrate the problem area.
