Experiential Learning in Vehicle Dynamics Education via Motion Simulation and Interactive Gaming

Vertical Dynamics Modeling and Simulation of a Six-Wheel Unmanned Ground Vehicle

Vertical dynamics modeling and simulation of a six-wheel unmanned military vehicle (MULE) studied in this paper. The Common Mobility Platform (CMP) chassis provided mobility, built around an advanced propulsion and articulated suspension system gave the vehicle ability to negotiate complex terrain, obstacles, and gaps that a dismounted squad would encounter. Aiming at modeling of vehicle vertic...

Enhancing Participant Business Process Perception through Business Gaming

This paper proposes the use of interactive, continuous business game constructions to be used as an educational tool to enhance participant business process perception (participants’ understanding of the functioning of business processes). The proposal is based on the experiential learning theory and the present business process modelling discussion. The authors discuss how business game models...

A real-time recursive dynamic model for vehicle driving simulators

This paper presents the Real-Time Recursive Dynamics (RTRD) model that is developed for driving simulators. The model could be implemented in the Driving Simulator. The RTRD can also be used for off-line high-speed dynamics analysis, compared with commercial multibody dynamics codes, to speed up mechanical design process. An overview of RTRD is presented in the paper. Basic models for specific ...

Enhancement of Articulated Heavy Vehicle Stability by Optimal Linear Quadratic Regulator (LQR) Controller of Roll-yaw Dynamics

Non-linear characteristic of tire forces is the main cause of vehicle lateral dynamics instability, while direct yaw moment control is an effective method to recover the vehicle stability. In this paper, an optimal linear quadratic regulator (LQR) controller for roll-yaw dynamics to articulated heavy vehicles is developed. For this purpose, the equations of motion obtained by the MATLAB sof...
