Abstract

An overview of the truck and tractor-trailer braking and handling project is given. The purpose of this research is to establish a digital computer-based mathematical method for predicting the longitudinal and directional response of trucks and tractor-trailers. In the context of this study, prediction involves the use of computer simulations to obtain numerical results that quantify the barking and steering responses of specific commercial vehicles.
