Modelling vehicle acceleration
[COLOR=#353C41][FONT=Inter]Hi everybody[/FONT][/COLOR]
[COLOR=#353C41][FONT=Inter]I am an undergraduate mechanical engineering student and I am currently working on a project.[/FONT][/COLOR]
[COLOR=#353C41][FONT=Inter]I need to model the acceleration of a motorcycle from 0-100mph, taking into account road friction and drag friction, the gear ratios, power/torque curve etc.[/FONT][/COLOR]
[COLOR=#353C41][FONT=Inter]I am completely at a loss on how to do this, so I would appreciate any help I could get with this. It will be a simple flat surface so I just need a "time taken" from 0-100mph.[/FONT][/COLOR]
[COLOR=#353C41][FONT=Inter]I have the frontal area, wheel radius, power/torque curves against RPM, gear ratios etc. Also the vehicle mass and an estimated drag coefficient.[/FONT][/COLOR]
