Dynamic analysis of the hydraulic steering system on articulated dump trucks

Abstract

Articulated dump trucks (which are hinged between the front chassi and the rear chassi) are very commonly used in the construction and mining industries. The Articulated dump trucks are large, heavy-duty dump trucks that are used off-road to transport bulk loads across rough terrains with a degree of limited space, due to their smaller turning circle. Because the articulated dump truck moves on complex terrain, the dynamic load on the steering system is large, so it is necessary to study the hydraulic steering system dynamics. The article researches building the models, and dynamic analysis of hydraulic steering systems on articulated dump trucks. The dynamic model is built from detail to system model. The process of simulating the dynamics of the hydraulic steering system on articulated dump trucks is to analysis and survey the real work of the system to efficiently use and exploit articulated dump trucks.
