The influence of the cargo weight loaded on the vehicle and the total gross mass of the
vehicle on the braking characteristics is often researched from the road safety reason …

The centre of gravity is an imaginary point in which the whole vehicle mass is concentrated.
The point's coordinates affect the load of particular wheels of the vehicle and they are …

In general, long combination vehicles (LCVs) show poor performance with regard to stability,
and this has been the focus of many studies around the world. Some characteristics such as …

Transport of liquid, gaseous, powdered or granulated substances is an integral part of the
industry in each country. This type of cargo is most often transported by companies that are a …

The static stability factor (SSF) of a vehicle is mainly dependent on the lateral and vertical
location of the vehicle's centre of gravity (CG) and this point is, in turn, influenced by many …

In this paper, the influence of load distribution on the stability of heavy articulated vehicles is
analyzed. In general, heavy articulated vehicles have low performance with respect to …

The rapid development of cooperative vehicle-infrastructure system (CVIS) improves the
communication reliability between vehicles and road environment. These communications …

From the perspective of heavy vehicles stability, some criteria of stability should be adhered
to highway designs. In particular, the relationship between minimum radius, superelevation …

A general method for balance of planar mechanisms is presented in this paper. In order to
determine the force that causes unbalanced, called shaking forces, the dynamics equations …

The stability of long combination vehicles (LCV's) has been the focus of research efforts in
recent decades. Several characteristics of the vehicles have been analyzed to determine …
