Dynamic Response of a Rollover Protective Structure

Dynamic Analysis and Stability of Articulated Liquid Cargo Vehicles with Tank Baffles

Articulated liquid cargo vehicles transporting inflammable fuels and dangerous chemical products require special consideration when traveling on urban roads or cruising at highway speeds. The road safety and handling of these kinds of vehicles may be adversely affected when negotiating sharp turns or travelling on slippery roads, which may result in either lateral instabilities or complete roll...

Determination of the three-axle bus critical speed in the sense of rollover stability respect to the driver command and the road conditions

In this paper, a three-axle bus rollover threshold and the effective parameters are studied. The rollover threshold is a speed that automotive is passing without occurring rollover. The objective is a determination of the heavy vehicle rollover critical speed while turning. For this purpose, a three-axle bus is studied. The dynamic equations related to rollover is extracted, and then rollover c...

The Behaviour of Rollover Protective Structures subjected to Static and Dynamic Loading Conditions

Analysis of Roll Control System to Eliminate Liquid Sloshing Effect on Lateral Stability of an Articulated Vehicle Carrying Liquid

In this paper, the consequences of filled volume on the transient lateral dynamic and stabilities boundaries displacement of an articulated vehicle carrying liquid is investigated. First, a sixteen-degrees-of-freedom nonlinear dynamic model of an articulated vehicle is developed then, using TruckSim software the model is validated. Next, the dynamic interaction of the fluid cargo with the vehic...

Liquid Sloshing Effect Analysis on Lateral Dynamics of an Articulated Vehicle Carrying Liquid for Various Filled Volumes
