This study focuses on changes in the friction characteristics of paved roads under various conditions from the viewpoint of traffic safety. In general, the braking characteristics of road vehicles are examined using the μ–s characteristics of the ...
The Personal Mobility Vehicle (PMV), which has an inward-tilting angle, turns with lateral force due to a large camber angle, so it is necessary to consider the lateral movement of the tire vertical load axis during turning. Although the steering ...
This study focuses on the possibility of constructing a database on friction coefficients for actual roads from the viewpoint of traffic safety. A measurement algorithm is established to construct a road friction-measuring device. Next, the tires ...
This paper is concerned with a driver's behavior of heavy-duty vehicle on car following condition, using the driver model. At first, the driver model which is constructed by first report was extended for dynamic system. And, it is shown that the d...
This paper is concerned with a driver model of heavy duty vehicle for longitudinal control, using the multiple regression analysis. Firstly as a longitudinal control, modeling of a fore-and-aft operation is constructed for each gear based on exper...
This paper is concerned with the running stability of tractor-semitrailer combination at braking. Firstly, we construct nonlinear equations of motion for the articulated vehicles, which have 9 degrees of freedom. Secondly, simulation study is carr...
This paper is concerned with the running stability of tractor-semitrailer systems at braking. Firstly, we construct nonlinear equations of motion for the articulated vehicles which have 9 degrees of freedom, i,e., forward, lateral, yawing, rolling...
