Moments and products of inertia of the sprung mass of the vehicle. SVC computes these at the sprung center-of-gravity position, about axes parallel to those of the vehicle center-of-mass marker.
Computed by:
SVCMIN
Input Variables Used:
■All part identifiers in ARRAY statements 9901, 9903, and 9905
■Percentage sprung values for each part, from ARRAY statements 9902, 9904, and 9906
■Body center-of-mass MARKER statement identifier (idbcm) from ARRAY/9909
Method:
SVC extracts from the data-set the mass properties and the center-of-mass marker identifiers of all parts listed in ARRAY statements 9901, 9903, and 9905. SVC multiplies the mass properties by the corresponding percentage sprung value and uses the result with displacements from the INFO utility subroutine to compute the various inertias using the parallel axis theorem.
