Anti-Skid Braking of a Tractor-Semitrailer Truck

This paper describes a study of anti-skid braking and the effects of such braking on the handling behavior and braking performance of a tractor-semitrailer truck. The truck, represented by a digital computer model having fourteen degrees of freedom, is taken to be in a cornering maneuver that involves braking and driver steering. Conventional braking or one of three types of anti-skid braking is used in the maneuver. The results show that the effects of anti-skid braking on the handling behavior and braking performance of the truck are beneficial. The results also show that the behavior of the wheels and the handling behavior and braking performance of the truck depend on the type of anti-skid braking used.     

Optimal Control of the Tractor-Semitrailer Truck

SUMMARY

This paper is concerned with the braking performance and the handling behavior of the tractor-semitrailer truck under optimal braking. Optimal control theory is used in order to deal with the problem and a combination of the steepest descent method and the Davidon Fletcher Powell method is used to solve it numerically. Results for some chosen braking maneuvers are obtained for a nonlinear truck model which has 14 degrees of freedom. These results show that, for the chosen maneuvers an idealized anti-skid braking is close to being optimal in the sense defined in this paper. Implementation of an idealized anti-skid braking on the tractor-semitrailer truck, however, may be not desirable.

Stability Bounds of a Tractor-Semitrailer

The dynamic stability of a tractor-semitrailer is presented here on a qualitative basis. In a four-dimensional space, equilibrium states of the system are discovered which lead to suitable initial conditions for numerical integration of the system equations. The intergal solutions define the stable and the unstable regions in the state-space, and thereby reveal the system behavior. A simple example concerning the effect of a front tire blowout illustrates how the theory can expose the vehicle motion under external perturbations.     

液罐汽车直线制动稳定性的分析

对液罐汽车部分装载并直线制动时，罐内液体的质心坐标和制动稳定性进行分析讨论。部分装载的液罐汽车制动行驶时，其质心位置将向前、向上转移，使汽车的同步附着系数减小，造成后桥车轮先于前轴车轮抱死，致使后桥车轮侧向附着力下降而容易发生侧滑；同时还导致前后车轮抱死间隔时间增加。为了减小液罐汽车罐内液体质心的转移对汽车制动稳定性的影响，应在结构上采取措施，尽量控制罐内液体质心的转移量，提高同步附着系数。

重型载货汽车气压制动系统危险状态识别

针对重型载货汽车因气压制动系统发生管路破裂、机械故障或热衰退导致制动效能下降且不易察觉从而引发严重交通事故的问题,提出基于主成分分析降维（PCA降维）和马尔可夫模型的气压制动系统危险状态识别方法。考虑到三轴载货汽车双回路制动系统的结构复杂性以及制动过程制动踏板动作、系统压力建立和实现车辆减速具有明显的时序性特点,首先采用PCA降维的方法对系统状态进行辨识;然后运用驾驶人制动意图与制动系统响应的双层隐形马尔可夫模型对系统状态进行识别。受驾驶人习惯影响制动踏板作用瞬间辨识度低,采用混合高斯聚类法提取不同制动意图时制动保持阶段数据建立制动意图识别模型和系统响应识别模型,通过二者匹配程度判定系统状态。最后,分别依据实车试验数据对模型进行离线训练和在线辨识验证。试验结果表明：系统正常状态下,基于PCA降维和马尔可夫模型相结合的识别方法能够准确、有效地识别制动系统状态;制动管路断开压力降低状态下,PCA降维方法能够及时有效识别其危险状态。     

Random Response of Tractor-Semitrailer System

This work describes an analytical study of the dynamic behaviour of a tractor-semitrailer vehicle. A digital computer simulation was used to describe the longitudinal, vertical, and pitching motions of the vehicle travelling over a stationary random road surface. A man-seat model was also incorporated into the simulation. Vehicle response to road irregularities has been studied by assuming two different roads for loaded and unloaded cases.

Numerical results are presented for vehicle, showing system eigenvalues, power spectral densities and root mean square values of the linear and angular accelerations and displacements. Vehicle acceleration response is compared with the ISO riding comfort standard. All results for the loaded and unloaded cases and for smooth and rough roads indicated that an uncomfortable ride would result from vehicle response.
