lateral force

lateral force
the component of the tire force vector in the y-direction. Note: for small slip and inclination angles, the lateral force developed by the tire can be approximated by fy = -caa + cyy angular rotations are positive clockwise when looking in the positive direction of the axis about which rotation occurs.
