A 9-DOF Tractor-Semitrailer Dynamic Handling Model for Advanced Chassis Control Studies

Gäfvert, Magnus LU and Lindgärde, Olof (2004) In Vehicle System Dynamics 41(1). p.51-82
Abstract
This paper describes a flexible and modular 9-degrees-of-freedomnonlinear dynamic handling model for a tractor-semitrailer combinationvehicle. The equations of motion are derived from the fundamentalequations of dynamics in Euler's formulation. The primary aim of themodel is simulations of handling scenarios with active yaw control,using unilateral braking and possibly tractor rear wheel steering. Theapplications of the model are not limited to this domain, but mayprove useful in other areas of tractor-semitrailer handling analysisor hardware-in-the-loop simulations. The model is formulated as astate-space model that may be implemented in standard simulationenvironments. A Simulink implementation is presented. Simulationresults are... (More)
