Abstrakt: This research proposes a parameter scaling method for dimensional analysis in extreme maneuver scenarios. Scaled vehicle experiments using dimensional analysis offer advantages in terms of test location, driver safety, and cost savings. Previous studies have overlooked the nonlinear effects of tires in dimensional analysis. Two methods are presented: scaling the frictional coefficient between tires and surfaces and virtual scaling of gravitational acceleration through time scaling. The methods were validated using a 1/8 scaled vehicle and the CarSim software program. This research establishes a practical and valid approach to parameter scaling in vehicle dynamics, considering tire nonlinearity and accommodating extreme maneuvers. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
