The Vehicle Dynamic Model VEHDYN 3.0, developed at the US Army Engineer Waterways Experiment Station, was used to compare selected displacements, velocities, and accelerations with field-measured quantities for both an empty and a fully loaded M977 HEMTT truck. Test conditions (detailed in Volume 1 of this series) included having the HEMTT negotiate small square-edged obstacles (0.25 -3.00 inches high) at low velocities (1.80 0.06 mph). Time history and Fast Fourier Transform comparisons are provided. The VEHDYN 3.0 model did a reasonable job at predicting the motion, especially the action of the HEMTT walking beam suspensions and overall low-frequency response. A procedure was demonstrated that takes acceleration data from low-amplitude front and rear drop tests and develops linear spring and damper response relationships for the HEMTT. (MM) |
