The value of the motion resistance is one important characteristics that determines technical and operational properties vehicle, in particular its fuel economy under operating conditions. This article summarizes approaches to determining rolling a wheeled vehicle straight motion, which separate case from curved motion. this parameter components along path. regularities changes two-axle curvili...

Goal. To determine and justify the conditions under which use of double/triple tires wheeled energy vehicles instead single ones will be appropriate. Methods. Theoretical studies were carried out using basics theory tractors agricultural machines. The object research was MTZ1221 multipurpose-weed tractor, front axle studied in variants with single, double, triple tires. Soil compaction passage ...

iii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS First and foremost I owe my deepest gratitude to my advisor and mentor, Prof. David G. Taylor for mentoring me and supporting me throughout my thesis for the last one year. This thesis would not have been possible unless it was for his patience, motivation, enthusiasm and immense knowledge of the subject matter. Besides my advisor, I would like to thank Prof. Yorai Wardi fo...

Active safety systems for three-wheeled vehicles seem to be in premature development; particular, delta types, also known as tuk-tuks or sidecars, are sold with minimal protection against accidents. Unfortunately, the risk of wheel lifting and lateral and/or longitudinal vehicle roll is high. For instance, a tripped rollover occurs when slides sideways, digging its tires into soft soil striking...

When designing a planetary rover, it is important to consider and evaluate the influence of parameters such as the weight and dimensions of the rover on its traversability. In this study, the influence of a rover’s weight on its traversability was evaluated by performing experiments using a mono-track rover and an inline four-wheeled rover with different rover weights. Then, the influence of th...

For the infrastructure block of agro-industrial complex, a program has been developed that allows determining rational air pressure in tires multi-axle wheeled vehicles. The software contributes to transfer information complex digital basis. Its use you reduce fuel consumption, increase economic efficiency and environmental friendliness transportation. educational process makes it possible form...

This study aims to find out how the level of mechanical knowledge, attitude, and pattern waste management in two-wheeled motorized vehicle workshops Mamajang Bontoala Districts, Makassar City. uses descriptive methods with quantitative approaches. To achieve objectives addition observations, questionnaires tests were given one mechanics each general workshop two- wheeled vehicles Sub-Districts,...

Waste tyres and their accumulation is a global environmental concern; they are not biodegradable, and, globally, an estimated 1.5 billion generated annually. Every year around 350,000 tons of end-of-life (ELT) managed in Italy, collected from cars, two-wheeled vehicles, trucks, up to large quarry vehicles agricultural vehicles. ELTs sent for material or energy recovery, line with the circular e...
