Dynamic Simulation of a Tracked Vehicle Based on RecurDyn

By using RecurDyn,Multi-body dynamics analysis software,a model is established for the running system of a tracked vehicle prototype.The processes of the vehicle motion are simulated both accelerating from its stationary state to a target velocity and keeping a uniform speed on a hard road,and the torque-time history was obtained from the virtual measuring points at the driven shaft of side-reducer.By comparing with the road-test results under the same conditions,the accuracy of the model was verified.
