Abstract

The articulated vehicle is a type of off-road vehicle whose working condition is very bad, so the safety and stability of the vehicle are very important in driving. The overturning tests of the articulated vehicle are difficult to perform in fact, the overturning models are established to analyze these accidents. In this paper, the mathematic model of overturning of articulated vehicle was established, and the important characteristics of articulated vehicle overturning were revealed based on the model. The influence parameters were investigated by using simulation software Matlab and Veh-sim, so the safety and stability of articulated vehicle in driving would be ensured. When abrupt steering and braking were performed at the speed of 30 km/h, the longitudinal and lateral acceleration would achieve the maximum, the dangerous accidents of the articulated vehicle would appear in one second and overturning accidents would appear in 4.5 seconds.
