The paper investigates the effect of tire inflation pressure on the lateral dynamics of a passenger car, and presents a possible control-oriented methodology aimed at adapting tire pressure to the current vehicle loading condition targeting a reference characteristic. Starting from the tire characteristics at several inflation pressure levels, the paper investigates the effect of changing selectively tire pressure on each of the two axles, through theoretical calculation of the curvature gain based on the computation of the derivatives of stability, and compares the obtained sensitivity to the results of a multibody simulation model validated through on-track tests. Finally, the work presents a possible algorithm that could be implemented on-board vehicle ECU to provide, for the current loading condition of the vehicle, a tire pressure combination that targets a specific lateral dynamics characteristic. The algorithm is intended as part of the control logic of an intelligent Central Tire Inflation System (CTIS) able to adjust automatically tire pressure according to the actual vehicle working conditions.
