All Rights Reserved. 03/07 1 Key FAQs What is roll stability? Roll stability counteracts the tendency of a vehicle, or vehicle combination, to tip over while changing direction (typically while turning). The lateral (side) acceleration creates a force at the center of gravity (CG), “pushing” the truck/tractor-trailer horizontally. The friction between the tires and the road opposes that force. If the lateral force is high enough, one side of the vehicle may begin to lift off the ground potentially causing the vehicle to roll over. Factors influencing the sensitivity of a vehicle to lateral forces include: the load CG height, load offset, road adhesion, suspension stiffness, frame stiffness and track width of vehicle. What is yaw stability? Yaw stability counteracts the tendency of a vehicle to spin about its vertical axis. During operation, if the friction between the road surface and the tractor’s tires is not sufficient to oppose lateral (side) forces, one or more of the tires can slide, causing the truck/tractor to spin.

Design Vehicles and Turning Radii
Design Vehicles and Turning Radii Brazhuman corp TTE 4824 Dr. Scott Washburn Introduction Design vehicles are selected motor vehicles with the weight, dimensions, and operating characteristics used to establish highway design controls for accommodating vehicles of designated classes. For purposes of geometric design, each design vehicle has larger physical dimensions and a larger minimum turning radius than most vehicles in its class. Introduction The design of an intersection is significantly affected by the type of design vehicle, including horizontal and vertical alignments, lane widths, turning radii, intersection sight distance, storage length of auxiliary lanes, and acceleration and deceleration lengths on auxiliary lanes. Design Vehicle Classes Four general classes of vehicles have been established, namely, passenger cars, buses, trucks, and recreational vehicles. The passenger car class includes compacts, subcompacts, sedans, pick-up trucks, SUVs, minivans, and full-size vans. Design Vehicle Classes Buses include inter-city (motor coaches), city transit, school, and articulated buses. The truck class includes single-unit trucks, truck tractor-semitrailer combinations, and truck tractors with semitrailers in combination with full trailers. Design Vehicle Classes Recreational vehicles include motor homes, cars with camper trailers, cars with boat trailers, motor homes with boat trailers, and motor homes pulling cars. Additionally, the bicycle should also be considered a design vehicle when its use on a roadway is permitted. Dimensions of Design Vehicles The 2001 AASHTO Green Book includes 19 design vehicles. The dimensions of design vehicles take into account dimensional trends in motor vehicle manufacture and represent a composite of the vehicles currently in operation; however, the design vehicle dimensions must represent the values critical to geometric design and are thus greater than nearly all vehicles belonging to the corresponding vehicle classes.

Received: 16 December 2019; Accepted: 31 January 2020; Published: 14 February 2020 Abstract: The lightweight design of trucks is of great importance to enhance the load capacity and reduce the production cost. As a result, the taper-leaf spring will gradually replace the multi-leaf spring to become the main elastic element of the suspension for trucks. To reveal the changes of the handling stability after the replacement, the simulations and comparison of the taper-leaf and the multi-leaf spring suspensions with the same vertical stiffness for trucks were conducted. Firstly, to ensure the same comfort of the truck before and after the replacement, an analytical method of replacing the multi-leaf spring with the taper-leaf spring was proposed. Secondly, the effectiveness of the method was verified by the stiffness tests based on a case study. Thirdly, the dynamic models of the taper-leaf spring and the multi-leaf spring with the same vertical stiffness are established and validated, respectively.

FHWA Highway Statistics VM-1 Data Procedure FHWA-PL-11-031
FHWA Highway Statistics VM-1 Data Procedure FHWA-PL-11-031 Travel Monitoring and Surveys Division Office of Highway Policy Information Federal Highway Administration 1200 New Jersey Avenue, SE Washington, DC 20590 Originally Developed - August 2011 Updated - March 2019 This document is intended to provide the procedures and steps used in the development of the FHWA Highway Statistics VM-1 publication. The document has 4 components as defined below. Component 1: Approaches to Compute National VMT by Roadway Functional Class Group and Vehicle Types Component 2: Reconciling National Vehicle Registration Data Based on Axle Spacing and Tire Arrangements Component 3: Vehicle Occupancy Factor Computation Component 4: Fuel Efficiency Modeling Component 1 Approaches to Compute National VMT by Roadway Functional Class Groups and Vehicle Types Background Prior to the 2009 Highway Statistics, vehicle miles traveled (VMT) related data elements in table VM-1 were based on a modeling procedure with initial inputs from the Highway Performance and Monitoring System (HPMS) data and constrictions established from the Vehicle Inventory and Use Survey (VIUS) data. It has been noticed that VMT by vehicle type and roadway functional class data under this historical procedure were drifting away from what is being reported through the HPMS system. When the original historical modeling method was developed (early 1990s), the modeling logic was necessary due to potential field traffic data quality issues and the availability of the Vehicle Inventory and Use Survey (VIUS) data. However, with the advancement in traffic data collection instruments, implementation of institutionalized processes and procedures by State highway agencies in data collection, practical experience gained in traffic data collection, and the discontinuation of the VIUS (the last one was carried out in 2002), the original modeling method is deemed no longer appropriate.
