Plotting Lateral & Longitudinal accelerations

[nicZox]

Hello everyone,
I have read on various discussions that it is possible to compute and do plotting of the G-Force during the round (although not accurately because of the sampling rate).
Can anyone share the code to do this on lateral and longitudinal accelerations?

Thanks

Could someone please explain to me how to calculate lateral G-Force?
Thanks

This just a general problem from kinematics. You want to calculate the lateral acceleration for the trajectory of a generic particle. The Wikipedia article about kinematics will already give you an idea how to do that.

Hi, thanks for the tip.
From what I cpaired to calculate the lateral acceleration, you need to know the radius of curvature of the cruves and circuits. I just didn't understand how to calculate them with Fast-F1.

Any advice?
Thanks

You need the real trajectory of the car, the information of the circuit is not enough
