About this document

SAE Baja Steering System Analysis by ROHAN SHENDE is a document available to read on EtoBox.

This honors thesis examines different steering geometries for the BYU Baja vehicle. It focuses on Ackermann steering and parallel steering. Ackermann steering is ideal for low speed turns as it allows for a smaller turning radius. Parallel steering is better suited for high speed turns as it reduces slip angle. The thesis recommends Ackermann steering for the Baja vehicle but suggests further analysis of parallel steering for high speed maneuvers, with the possibility of a hybrid steering option.
