Active aerodynamic downforce control: BayerRecent Research Landscape

Vehicle instability during high-speed cornering creates safety risks and performance loss. These innovations mitigate these risks by dynamically adjusting aerodynamic surfaces to modulate downforce based on tilt angle.

What technical problems is Bayer addressing in Active aerodynamic downforce control?

Cornering traction instability

(15)evidences

Loss of tire grip and directional stability during high-speed leaning maneuvers. Mitigating this failure mode prevents vehicle wash-out and improves cornering safety limits.

Wheel induced aerodynamic drag

(8)evidences

Airflow turbulence and pressure resistance generated by rotating wheel spokes. Reducing this parasitic loss increases vehicle range and energy efficiency.
