Abstract

This paper presents the chosen results of simulation of sports car mathematical model in different conditions of motion. The car model was loaded with the extra mass representing both driver and passenger. The location of the center of mass was disturbed, as if the car had previously been damaged due to side impact accident, and then repaired without the control of basis points in its body. It is shown how the car body can be damaged as a result of side crash at different velocity. A simulation of double lane change was conducted as a maneuver of omitting a long obstacle. Different road conditions were taken into consideration, i.e. icy, uneven road. In further steps, some parts of road lane was divided into defined number of disjoined classes, which enabled us to find the frequency of the car remaining in each class. This, in turn will allow the examination of technical stochastic stability of car model and comparison with the definition according to ISO 8855:1991.
