Abstract: | This paper examines the rolling motions of vehicles with pneumatic tires. From a simplified analysis two sources of instability are identified-one related to center of gravity position and the other to tire and suspension characteristics. When a specimen vehicle is considered, it is shown that current semi-trailer design can display instability from either source. |
