Studying the influence of road surface on the turning trajectory of trucks

Abstract

During transportation, it is possible that the coefficient of traction at the wheels may be different, leading to the coefficient of rolling resistance at the wheels being also different, affecting the rotational trajectory of the car. This paper presents the results of research on the influence of the coefficient of traction as well as the corresponding rolling resistance coefficient for different types of road surface to the turning trajectory of trucks using Matlab Simulink software combined with Montenegro method. Carlo. The research results can be applied to evaluate the rotational dynamics of trucks when designing, converting or making some recommendations in the exploitation and use of trucks when entering a roundabout.
