Ride motion of non-linear suspension characteristics tracked vehicle on wavy surface
Rade Stevanoviæ
The relation between oscillation amplitude and
vehicle velocity is determined graphically for the tracked vehicle with
extremely non-linear suspension characteristics in the case of motion on the
wavy surface whose wave length is double than the track length on the ground. An
approximate numerical procedure for solving non- inear oscillations is used to
correct the graphical method. The vehicle oscillations with non-linearity
mediocre characteristics were discussed.
Key words: tracked vehicle, vehicle
suspension, suspension, vehicle oscillations, non-linear oscillations.
