Abstract :
One of the most important issues regarding cars is the type of optimal car steering mechanism, which has been extensively researched in this field due to its importance. In this research, the Ackerman steering mechanism for the front-axle steerable vehicle has been investigated. At first, the researches of the predecessors have been described with emphasis on their strengths and weaknesses, and then a general summary has been made. Finally, an example of this mechanism was modeled and simulated in the ARTAS SAM software.
