Abstract :
Because three-axle heavy-vehicle with front-wheel steering has big radius at low speed and bad stability at high speed, in order to improve heavy vehicle steering performance at different speed, the multi-axle dynamic steering technology is put forward. Selecting zero side-slip angle of mass center and proportional control strategy to control vehicle, Using MATLAB, the steering performance of the three-axle vehicle with different steering modes are simulated. The result shows that multi-axle dynamic steering can decrease the steering radius at low speed and improve vehicle stability at high speed.
