摘要: |
Truck performance observed on grades on National Highway 7 in Argentina is described. The observed weight-to-power ratio distribution in Argentina is shown to be considerably higher than that in North America. Also, a speed prediction model based on the simple force balance equation is fitted to the field data. The model explains about 80% of the observed variation, and for steep upgrades the predictions are similar to values observed in the United States. Acceleration and deceleration performance curves are also given. Finally, a validation of the model is presented by comparing the predicted and the observed speed profiles along two upgrades for trucks of known weight-to-power ratios. The shapes of the speed profiles predicted by the model closely replicate the observed speed profiles. |
