Abstract The research on braking performance a of tractor-semitrailer is a hard and
difficult point in the field of vehicle reliability and safety technology. In this paper,
the tire braking model and the dynamic characteristic model of the brake torque
with the variable of the controlling air pressure were established. We also
established a nonlinear kinematic model of the tractor-semitrailer when it brakes
on a curve. The parameters and variables of the model were measured and
determined by the road experiment test. The optimal control strategy for the
tractor-semitrailer based on the optimal slipping ratio was More >
