OFF-ROAD VEHICLE RIDE VIBRATION

The particular problems associated with off-road vehicle ride vibration are reviewed and measured results for several vehicle types are discussed. Whilst recognising the limitations to accurate modelling imposed by the lack of tyre data, it is shown how simple mathematical modelling can be helpful in understanding various aspects of off-road vehicle ride problems. For the covering abstract of the conference see TRIS 451834. (Author/TRRL)
