Modelling Human Operator Driving High-Speed Tracked Vehicle

This paper is devoted to simulation of curvilinear movement of high-speed tracked vehicles driven by human operators with different qualification. The mathematical model of the high-speed tracked vehicle's movement with provisions for description of a human operator is reduced. A skill level reflecting probability of faultless work of the human operator is chosen as an estimate criterion. This probability is unambiguously defined by the correction coefficient value depending not on training duration, as usual, but by results of total qualification tests (so-called degree of proficiency of the human operator). Results of simulation of the high-speed tracked vehicle's control system prove that the management quality depends on the qualification of the human operator. That is an indirect confirmation of adequacy of the offered human operator simulation model based on the Mamdani's Expert system.
