Vehicle Dynamics During Lane Changes on Bilateral Transverse Slopes

Simulation data from a study investigating how bilateral transverse slopes affect vehicle dynamics during lane-changing maneuvers. The dataset likely contains results from CarSim and TruckSim simulations covering three vehicle types (sedans, SUVs, trucks), four transverse slope variations (0%, 1.5%, 2%, 2.5%), and three weather conditions (dry, rainy, snowy). It was authored by Mahdi Moharami and last updated on 2026-05-05.

Use Cases

• Modeling vehicle stability thresholds based on steering angle and rollover angle data.
• Assessing the impact of adverse weather conditions, like low friction coefficients, on lane-change safety.
• Comparing the sensitivity of different vehicle types (sedans, SUVs, trucks) to speed and slope changes.
• Optimizing road drainage design by evaluating safety parameters across transverse slope variations.

Strengths

• Simulation parameters are well-defined, including three vehicle types, four slope variations, and three weather conditions.
• Key dynamic parameters such as steering angle, slip angle, rollover angle, and torsional moment angle were examined.
• The dataset is openly available under a CC-BY-4.0 license.

Limitations

• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• The dataset is small (5.5 KB), indicating a limited scope of results.
