Study of Vibration Specifications of a Three-axle Truck Using Lagrange Method

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...

Effect of Transport Vibration on Quality of Minimally Processed and Packaged Fresh-Cut Cantaloupe

This study was undertaken to determine the quality of packaged fresh cut cantaloupe subjected to transport vibration after treating with various anti-browning agents. Cantaloupe (Cucumis melo) pieces were dipped in two anti-browning solutions: Treat­ ment-A (2% ascorbic acid + 1% calcium chloride + 0.5% citric acid) and Treatment-B (3% NatureSealTM) for 2 minutes and packaged in bio-based clams...

A road damage and life-cycle greenhouse gas comparison of trucking and pipeline water delivery systems for hydraulically fractured oil and gas field development in Colorado

The process of hydraulic fracturing for recovery of oil and natural gas uses large amounts of fresh water and produces a comparable amount of wastewater, much of which is typically transported by truck. Truck transport of water is an expensive and energy-intensive process with significant external costs including roads damages, and pollution. The integrated development plan (IDP) is the industr...

Numerical Approach Toward Calculation of Vibration Characteristics of the Multi Axles Truck Using Lagrange Method

Initially, the first aim of the present study is to model 3-axle rigid truck by developing a code in Matlab. Secondly, each equation should be drived by acquisition of Lagrange approach. After deriving equations successfully, validation is performed by some result which was mentioned in Bohao Li's master thesis. Although the present approach is totally different from the approach that Boahao Li...
