P-AWS allows the RLX actively and independently adjust the angle of the rear wheels for better agility and braking. Acura ended up cutting almost 275 pounds from the RLX's curb weight (compared to the RL) thanks to the use of high-strength steel and aluminum.
The world’s first Precision All-Wheel Steer™ (P-AWS ®) system on a production vehicle changes the game for front wheel driving, independently adjusting the rear wheel toe angles for increased agility and stability while cornering, changing lanes or braking.
Articulated Steering vs. 4 Wheel Steering. Discussion in 'Compact Wheel Loaders' started by HighFlyerAK, Feb 5, 2015.
Audi A8 - Dynamic all-wheel steering. Boundaries pushed: dynamic all-wheel steering There is another world first in the suspension of the new A8: dynamic all-wheel steering. It, too, is controlled by the electronic suspension platform (ESP).
Audi Q7 all-wheel steering Audi offers another groundbreaking innovation as an option: all-wheel steering. A steering system with an electric spindle drive turns the rear wheels inward by as much as five degrees depending on the situation.
Ackermann steering geometry is a geometric arrangement of linkages in the steering of a car or other vehicle designed to solve the problem of wheels on the inside and outside of a turn needing to trace out circles of different radii.
BMW 7-Series 2001, EuroTone Two-Color Steering Wheel Cover by Wheelskins®. Add a splash of color to any steering wheel with EuroTone. And you can expect the same quality and perfect fit as you get with standard one color Wheelskins.
The BMW 850CSi is the the BMW Motorsport-developed version of the E31 8 Series coupe. It is powered by the S70 V12 engine, a BMW Motorsport-enhanced version the standard production M70 powerplant.
What Components of the Suspension or Steering Systems Are Prone to Fail? What Components of the Suspension or Steering Systems Are ... Bushings, bearings, and joints.
Electric Power Steering To provide steering assistance, an electric motor mounted to the side of the rack housing drives a ball-screw mechanism via a toothed rubber belt. The screw engages a spiral cut in the outside of the steering rack. A torque sensor attached to the pinion shaft signals a control computer when to provide assistance.
A planetary gearbox determined rear-steering degree based on steering-wheel angle. At small angles, the rear wheels would steer up to 1.5 degrees in phase with the fronts, but at larger angles (more than 246 degrees of steering rotation), the rear wheels would steer up to 5.3 degrees opposite the fronts, trimming the turning radius about 10 percent.
Hydraulic power steering systems work by using a hydraulic system to multiply force applied to the steering wheel inputs to the vehicle's steered (usually front) road wheels.
A steering linkage is the part of an automotive steering system that connects to the front wheels. Diagrammatic steering system The steering linkage which connects the steering gearbox to the front wheels consists of a number of rods.
A steering system that is designed to operate with power assistance isn’t meant to be driven without that power, and because of steering gear ratios, other geometrical considerations, and drag in the system, it can be surprisingly hard to turn the wheel when this happens.
Rear wheel steering tends to be unstable because in turns the steering geometry changes hence decreasing the turn radius (over steer), rather than increase it (under steer). Rear wheel steering is meant for slower vehicles that need high-maneuverability in tight spaces, e.g. fork lifts.
The core of this new and innovative shock from Rancho® is the unique and patented rebound valving system and an advanced compression phase of the shock absorber.
The Power Steering system provides greater assists at low speeds than at high speeds. The Speed Sensitive steering aspect should be consistent – it shouldn’t take more or less force to turn the wheel at the same speed during different times.
While springs absorb the bumps, shock absorbers (or, in cars that have them, struts, which are similar to shocks) dampen the motion of the springs after a bump, keeping the vehicle from bouncing excessively.
Steer by wire European Commissioner Günther Oettinger trying Uniti steer-by-wire system at the 2016 CeBit Edition. This kind of system will provide steering control to a car with fewer mechanical components/linkages between the steering wheel and the wheels.

And adding inches to the outside upsets steering geometry and overstrains wheel bearings. And, oh yeah, it makes the tire sidewall rub the fender. Cars make plenty of good noises, like a throaty exhaust.
