Find percent error between linearized-nonlinear tire models


The Eagle ZR tire shown in the Figure 1 is used on a Corvette J with a test weight of 3500 lb. and having a 52/48 weight distribution. Use the cornering stiffnesses (i.e., a linearized tire) and the actual curves themselves (a nonlinear tire) to calculate the cornering force at a slip angle of 1.5 deg. on the front and rear tires. What is the percent error between linearized and nonlinear tire models? Repeat the calculation at 4.0 deg. Interpolation between load curves will be necessary. For simplicity, ignore weight transfer.
