Has anyone seen a good writeup on the mechanics of caster design?  I am
looking for a concise description of how the horn offset (distance between
the wheel axle and the caster pivot) affects stability and the "caster
steer" phenomenon.

(...) Check out Mario Ferrari's book, pages 134 and 143. He shows the good and bad caster designs. (22 years ago, 6-Aug-02, to lugnet.robotics)
