A nonlinear four-wheel dynamics vehicle model which includes a limit-slip differential model based on FSAE racecar is established and the typical conditions are designed according to track requirement. The effect of different locking ratio on vehicle handling stability has been researched .The simulation results shows that: with the increase of locking ratio, the steering radius ratio increase, both peak lateral acceleration and yaw angular velocity reduce, and the changing trend of value is flat. But the average acceleration increase with the locking ratio until the latter reach a specific value under the condition of Slaloms.

This paper presents a generalized, multi-body dynamics model for a tracked vehicle equipped with a winch for towing operations. The modeling approach couples existing formulations in the literature for the powertrain components and the vehicle-terrain interaction to provide a comprehensive model that captures the salient features of terrain trafficability. This coupling is essential for making realistic predictions of the vehicle’s mobility capabilities due to the power-load relationship at the engine output. Simulation results are presented jointly with experimental data to validate these dynamics under conditions where no action is taken by the winch. Extended modeling includes dynamics of the hydraulic system that powers the winch so that the limitation of the winch as an actuator and the load it puts on the engine are realized. A second set of simulation results show that for a set of open loop control actions by the winch, the vehicle is able to maintain its mobility in low traction terrain by paying the towed load in and out.

Time Information

In this paper, track tension monitoring methodology is developed so that the track tension can be estimated under various maneuvering tasks such as longitudinal driving on sloping and/or rough roads, turning on flat or sloping roads, etc. The real-time information of the track tension is very important for tracked vehicles because the track tension is closely related to the maneuverability and the durability of tracked vehicles. In the case of longitudinal driving, a modified 3 DOF dynamics model is derived for tracked vehicles and is utilized for estimating the tractive force and track tension. In the case of turning, kinetic models for six road-wheels are obtained and used for calculating the track tension around the sprocket. This method does not require tuning of the turning resistance, which makes it difficult to estimate the track tension in turning. The estimation performance of the proposed methods is verified through simulations of the Multi-Body Dynamics tool. The simulation results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method under various maneuvering tasks of tracked vehicles.

It is worthwhile to design a more accurate dynamic model for air springs, to investigate the dynamic behaviour of an air spring suspension, and to analyse and guide the design of vehicles with air spring suspensions. In this study, a dynamic model of air spring was established, considering the heat transfer process of the air springs. Two different types of air spring were tested, and the experimental results verified the effectiveness of the air spring model compared with the traditional model. The key factors affecting the computation accuracy were studied and checked by comparing the results of the experiments and simulations. The new dynamic model of the air spring was integrated into the full-vehicle multi-body dynamics model, in order to investigate the air suspension behaviour and vehicle dynamics characteristics. The co-simulation method using ADAMS and MATLAB/Simulink was applied to integration of the air spring model with the full-vehicle multi-body dynamics model.

Simulation Results

In this paper, a control oriented rational tire model is developed and incorporated in a two-track vehicle dynamics model for the prospective design of vehicle dynamics controllers. The tire model proposed in this paper is an enhancement over previous rational models which have taken into account only the peaking and saturation behavior disregarding all other force generation characteristics. Simulation results have been conducted to compare the dynamics of a vehicle model equipped with a Magic Formula tire model, a rational tire model available in the literature and the present rational tire model. It has been observed that the proposed tire model results in vehicle responses that closely follow those obtained with the Magic Formula even for extreme driving scenarios conducted on roads with low adhesion coefficient.

It is very important to simulate driver's manipulation for people - car - road closed loop simulation system. In this paper, the driver model is divided into two parts, linear vehicle model is used to simulate the driver's driving experience, and closed-loop feedback is used to characterize the driver's emergency feedback. The lateral acceleration of vehicle is used as feedback in closed loop control. Simulation results show that the smaller lateral acceleration requires the less closed-loop feedback control. The driver model can accurately track the target path, which can be used to simulate the manipulation of the driver. The driver model can be used for people - car - road closed loop simulation to evaluate vehicle handling stability.
