The rubber track system can be quickly swapped on the tyres, exerting a smaller ground pressure while generating a greater adhesion to solve the problem vehicles faced in traversing rough and difficult terrain. This paper will discuss the influence of rubber track system on the ride comfort of engineering vehicles with rigid suspension. First, a multi-body dynamic model of the rubber track system and a mathematical model of contact between the ground and the track are established, and then the macro commands are programmed to add many complex contact forces. Moreover, by using the method of physical prototype obstacle testing, the correctness of the simulation model is validated. The ride comfort of the engineering vehicle when equipped with rubber track system is explored by the method of the multi-body dynamics and real vehicle test. The research shows that a flexible roller wheel system can significantly improve the ride comfort of the engineering vehicle when compared to wheeled vehicles. When the vehicle speed is low, the weighted root-mean-square acceleration of the wheeled vehicle and tracked vehicle is almost the same. At the same time, it is verified that the ride comfort of the steel-chain tracked vehicles is worse than that of rubber tracked vehicles, due to the polygon effect. Through the multi-body dynamics simulation of the virtual prototype, we can predict and evaluate the ride comfort of vehicles, saving the cost of testing and obtaining the actual experimental data, which has great significance for the research and development of vehicles.

In this paper, a detailed rigid-flexible coupling multi-body dynamic model of heavy vehicle was established using multi-body dynamics method, and B class road model was built using harmonic superposition method. Then, the platform of heavy vehicle dynamics simulation was established. The driver seat acceleration and tire dynamic load were simulated at different speeds under the input of different random road excitations. According to the ride comfort evaluation method provided by ISO2631-1, total weighted root-mean-square (RMS) acceleration evaluation method was used to evaluate the ride comfort of heavy vehicle at different ride speeds.

For the poor ride comfort performance of the articulated dump truck, the dynamic model of ADT was built and its dynamic characteristics were also studied through finite element and multi-body system dynamic theory. According to the modal neutral file generated by finite element software with the flexible processing, the flexible coupling virtual prototyping model was set up for the multi-body dynamics simulation in ADAMS to obtain and analyze the data about the ADT ride comfort. This paper provided references for the design, redesign and optimization of the ADT.

One of the challenging problems in the forest industry is to develop a chassis that is well-adapted to the complex terrain conditions in the forest. In this article, a novel forestry chassis with an articulated body with 3 degrees of freedom and installed luffing wheel-legs (FC-3DOF&LW) is proposed, and the mechanical model of the luffing wheel-leg is built. Based on the mechanical model, the hydraulic cylinder velocity that involves the wheel-leg luffing is calculated. The process of surmounting the obstacle is presented by multi-body dynamics simulation. To demonstrate the improvement of ride comfort, the other simulation of the chassis with an articulated body with 3 degrees of freedom (FC-3DOF) is contrasted in multi-dynamics software. The final result shows that curves of barycenter displacement for FC-3DOF&LW with the front and rear frames are well matched when the front frame surmounts the obstacle; in particular, the barycenter displacement is almost stable when the rear frame surmounts the obstacle. The maximum rotated angle of the articulated joint reaches almost 37° without the luffing wheel-leg, whereas it is only 4° with FC-3DOF&LW, a decrease of 89.1%. Moreover, the acceleration trend for FC-3DOF&LW is more stable than that for FC-3DOF.

This paper aims at getting a way to obtain the suitable track tension by analyzing a heavy tracked vehicles driving prototype which is consisted of the sprocket and the meshing tracks. First, by analyzing the force state in the driving part in the multi-body dynamics simulation tool: RecurDyn, a critical condition to judge the peel-off of tracks in heavy tracked vehicle is proposed. Second, by comparing the different models built in RecurDyn, an ideal track distribution around the sprocket is obtained and also the relationship between the driving torque and the track tension under that ideal situation is concluded. Third, basing on the data from the simulation, the force state of each track meshed with the sprocket is analyzed, and an assumption about the proportion between each tracks upper and bottom pulling force is proposed.
