This review presents a thorough survey of academic work on the chassis design by FEA and application of design of experiment method in it. It surveys most literature published in English language. The review aims to provide insight into the truck chassis design and act as a guide for researchers working on both FEA and DOE method for chassis design. The main objective of the design is to obtain...

This article discusses the calculation of strength frame structure universal chassis tractor trailer in T-Flex software package and comparative analysis results with experimental data model based on principle virtual work (possible movements).

This paper is devoted to the development of an optimal control system of trajectory movement of a mobile robot. Synthesis of the trajectory control law is based on the methods of optimal control and asymptotical methods of singular perturbation theory. Singular perturbation theory’s methods are used for reducing the order of the solving problem and it helps to simplify the realization of the co...

In this article, identification of vertical dynamics of vehicles with controlled suspensions is considered. Identification is performed from experimental data measured on a four-poster bench test of a segment C car, equipped with a CDC-Skyhook dampers control system. The measurements are obtained from the onboard accelerometers needed by the control system. A nonlinear model in regression form ...

Undoubtedly, chassis is one of the most important parts of a vehicle. Chassis that today are produced for vehicles are made up of four parts. These parts are jointed together by screwing. Transverse parts are called cross member. This study reviews the stress generated by cyclic laboratory loads in front cross member of Peugeot 405. In this paper the finite element method is used to simulate th...

Go-karts are popular sport mini-car in western countries, and there are gaining prominence in developing countries such as Nigeria. Its performance is determined by the chassis design and the braking system is its lifeline. Because of the lack of a suspension system and differentials, a good chassis must be able to bend and twist. This Go-kart is powered by a Yamaha Vino Automatic Petrol 2-str...

In order to eliminate the interference and coupling among automobile chassis electronic control subsystems, an integrated decoupling control approach based on neural network inverse method was proposed. The integration of active front steering (AFS), direct yaw moment control (DYC) and active suspension (ASS) was studied. According to Inter-actor algorithm, the reversibility of chassis system w...

The semi-trailer chassis was usually treated as rigid body in many existing literature, which would lead to larger deviation from actual situation. A rigid semi-trailer chassis model was built and flexiblized based on the modal test results in this paper. The tractor semi-trailer with flexible chassis was utilized to simulate the rollover scenarios on high speed obstacle avoidance under emergen...

This paper presents the stress analysis of heavy duty truck chassis. The stress analysis is important in fatigue study and life prediction of components to determine the critical point which has the highest stress. The analysis was done for a truck model by utilizing a commercial finite element packaged ABAQUS. The model has a length of 12.35 m and width of 2.45 m. The material of chassis is AS...
