Testing Analysis on Load Transfer of Tractor-Semitrailer Steering and Braking

Article Preview

Abstract:

An algorithm about tractor-semitrailer longitudinal load and lateral load transfer amount was proposed in order to research the driving stability of tractor-semitrailer steering and braking. A dynamic simulation model of tractor-semitrailer including load transfer was established by using S-Function. The results show that the model including load transfer is more actual than conventional model to describe the driving stability of vehicle Further analyzed the effect of factors on load transfer when tractor-semitrailer steering and braking.
