Modeling and Movement Simulation of Tractor-Semitrailer

Article Preview

Abstract:

The Gim tire model was adopted to set up the nonlinear dynamic model of tractor-semitrailer. Choosing slip angle of tractor, yaw velocity of tractor and semitrailer as variables, the state space equation was proposed. Based on the established nonlinear dynamic model, simulation in Matlab/Simulink software environment was described. The simulation consults suggest that for tractor-semitrailer, it would lose stability with higher speed and bigger steering angle. The conclusion can be useful for the system design of tractor-semitrailer.
