Design of Wheeled Robot for Rough Terrain

Abstract:

The paper deals with the design of the simulation model of a wheel chassis with improved ability to cross a rugged terrain, which is to move across rugged terrain. One of the first steps taken was to propose the solution and its further improvement. In order to complete final simulation model, we carried out several simulations and resistance analysis confirming the advantage of the selected structure and mobility of the chassis.
