Abstract Impacts of autonomous truck’s passes on pavement have been analyzed in this research. Two types lateral positioning namely zero wander and uniform along with a super single wide tire dual variable traffic speeds ABQUS. The study concludes the results favor usage under mode. highest amount damage terms maximum rut depth is caused by wheel assembly moving zero-wander magnitude increases ...

In this research, Ride quality of a three-axle truck is investigated to understand its vibration specifications and influence of it on special load. The truck is Benz 2624, and the load is rather sensitive to vibrations. The system is considered for an off-road duty. Hence, the vehicle is modeled as a nineteen-degree of freedom system and its equations of motion are derived by employing Lagrang...

today, transportation of hazardous materials (i.e., hazmat) is a very important issue for researchersdue to the risk of this transit, which should be considered for development of industries and transportation.therefore, a model that is useful should consider the risk and damage to humanitarianand environmental issues due to transit of hazmat materials. by considering the related cost, thereali...

A path-tracking criterion for the so-called LHD (load-haul-dump) truck used in underground mining is proposed in this paper. It exploits the particular configuration of this vehicle, composed of two units connected by an actuated articulation. The task is to follow the path represented by the middle of the tunnel, maintaining the whole vehicle at a reduced distance from the path itself, to decr...

The main object was to perform simulations using a realistic model of a truck and trailer passing over a flexible bridge structure. The bridge structure was simplified to a flat surface modeled using shell finite elements. Tire normal, lateral and longitudinal forces were applied to the bridge. Three driving cases were considered: straight forward driving with and without braking and a lane cha...

This paper discusses impact of changes in the load size and distribution passenger cars on geometry suspension steering systems. It was found to have a major road safety. The research carried out with four most popular system designs used modern cars, i.e. multi-link both front rear axles, only axle, axle simple design for axles. Eight variants were tests. Changes following wheel parameters ide...
