摘要：

A non-linear, in-plane computer simulation model of a typical high-mobility tracked vehicle is developed for suspension dynamic analysis and ride quality assessment. The Langrangian model formulation of the tracked vehicle is derived considering an arbitrary rigid terrain profile and constant vehicle speed. The model incorporates detailed representations of a trailing arm suspension system and dynamic wheel-track-terrain interactions. The computer model predictions are validated against field measurements, which were gathered from tests of an armoured personnel carrier traversing a discrete half-round bump and a random course. A parametric sensitivity analysis was carried out using the validated computer model in order to assess the influence of conventional suspension parameters on the ride performance of the test vehicle. In addition, the ride performance potentials of an alternate hydrogas suspension configuration were investigated.
