Abstract

Commercial heavy vehicle is commonly used to transport goods and people efficiently and safely. A previous study has shown a number of gross vehicle weight (GVW) and speed violations recorded in selected areas in Malaysia, and two-axle single unit truck (SUT) is the most commercial heavy vehicle type that violated the weight and speed regulation. Moreover, accidents involving heavy vehicles result in severe traffic disruption and fatalities to other road users due to heavy vehicle size and capability to carry huge amounts of goods. Thus, the objective of this paper is to investigate the correlation and effect of the vehicle and road condition on the two-axle SUT rollover during cornering on the curved road using the simulation approach. The verified two-axle SUT model is simulated using IPG-TruckMaker® with different GVW, speed, and coefficient of friction values while the cornering radius, driver behaviour and load’s center of gravity remain constant. A correlation based on performance indices is established, and it is found that the heavy vehicle speed has a strong correlation to the lateral load transfer to cause a rollover followed by GVW and coefficient of friction, respectively.

基于车辆和路况载荷传递比的双轴重型车辆侧翻研究:一种仿真方法

商用重型车辆通常用于高效、安全地运输货物和人员。先前的一项研究显示，在马来西亚的选定地区记录了许多车辆总重量(GVW)和速度违规行为，而双轴单单元卡车(SUT)是违反重量和速度规定的最常见的商用重型车辆类型。此外，由于重型车辆的尺寸和运载大量货物的能力，涉及重型车辆的事故造成严重的交通中断和其他道路使用者的死亡。因此，本文的目的是利用仿真方法研究车辆和道路条件对弯曲道路转弯时双轴SUT侧翻的相关性和影响。在转弯半径、驾驶员行为和负载重心保持不变的情况下，使用IPG-TruckMaker®对具有不同GVW、速度和摩擦系数值的双轴SUT模型进行了仿真。建立了基于性能指标的相关关系，发现重型车辆的速度与横向载荷传递引起侧翻的相关性较强，其次是GVW和摩擦系数。
