This would have the effect of reducing the unsprung mass by 75 kg, and increasing the roll silfiness to 396 bNimind. Examine the eff ofthis odiiation onthe handling and onthe bay cl angle. Suppose a further proposal is made to irs the rear suspension by a tailing link design, which has the additional effect of reducing, the rear roll centre height to zero. How would this affeet the behaviour of the vehicle? sere apd 3 The transmission system of an 88 armoured personnel carricr drives the two rear axles only in the on-road mode, It is fitted with an independent suspension system using, struts at the front and trailing links atthe rear. The steering system acts on the two ffont axles. Other data are given below. Ge steer een Maes Use AFVHAND to predict the handling characteristics in a constant speed test at 80 knv/h on a dry steer pad, Examine the effect on handling of introducing a three axle steering system acting on a) axles 1, 2 and 3, b)axtes 1,2 and 4, 4 Numerous other studies can be undertaken with this program including the effects of a) adjusting tyre inflation pressures, b) fitting larger tyres, c) reducing tyre adhesion, d) adding appliqué armour which alters ‘weight distribution and increases mass and height of mass cenire and c) fitting anti-roll bars to increase roll stiffness and its distribution, Vehicle Data Parameter Recee vehicle ISvehicle APC Number of axles 2 2 < Combat mass (tonne) 65 11,67 13.0 Height of CG (m) 1.06 14 Ll Track (m) L753 2.04 2.19 Frontal area (m*) 372 6.55 4.63 Diag coefficient 102 10 10 Steering gear ratio 23.93 25.0 183 Tyres 11,00R20 12.00R20 11.00R16 Front axle(s) x co-ordinate (m) 1418 1,474 1,80 OF ‘Axle load (%) 430 52.0 24.0 ‘Unsprung mass (tonne) os 0.35 06 Roll stiffness (kNm/rad) 150.0 175.0 320.0 Roll centre height (mm) 0.403 a7 032 ‘Tyre inflation pressure (kPa) 270.0 483.0 380.0 Rear axle(s) x co-ordinate (m) 1.046 “1.596 0.635 -1.675 Axle load (%) 57.0 48.0 26.0 Unsprung mass (tonne) 0.46 035 044 Roll stiffness (kNm/td) 152.0 185.0 224.0 Roll centre height (m) 0.43 0.74 0.0 ‘Tyre inflation pressure (KPa) 350.0 483.0 380.0 z © Cranfield University 2007Appendix 1 — Layout of Data Files The data files must be laid out according to the following formal, Any deviation from this will prevent the program from running or lead to incorrect results.
