Excerpt

Vehicle dynamics of long combination vehicles greatly benefit from having a steerable intermediate unit at the second trailer. Rapid-control-prototyping environment enables to test active steering algorithms both in HiL configuration as well as on-track in 80-t combinations. The results were conducted within the Active Dolly Build-up research project at the Chalmers University of Technology in Gothenburg. This project aims to develop a prototype for active steering in long combination vehicles. The resulting solutions have been awarded with the Hermann Appel Price of IAV in 2016. …
