In this paper, the braking performance considering the dynamic weight is analyzed about the tractor-semitrailer vehicle. The basic brake performance, the parking brake performance, the emergency brake performance and the locking point deceleration etc. are to be calculated for the brake system design of the tractor-semitrailer vehicle. This braking performance is related to traffic regulations and braking characteristics according to the vehicle deceleration, the tire-road friction coefficient and specifications of the air brake system. The design program for the braking performance based on various design variables of the vehicle and the air brake system is developed integrating the analysis functions. This design program is developed by an object oriented programming method that is windows based. GUI (Graphic User Interface) function and the convenience of operating are greatly considered.

Recently safety systems for the commercial vehicle have been rapidly developed. However, we still have many problems in the vehicle stability and the braking performance. Especially, a commercial vehicle may meet a dangerous braking condition when the vehicle is lightly loaded or empty and when the road is wet or slippery. Under these conditions, the truck can spin out or the tractor can jackknife or the trailer can swing out. To design the air brake system for the commercial vehicle, since the air brake system has many design variables, there must have been intensive researches on a method how to prevent dynamic instability and how to maximize the vehicle deceleration. In this study, mathematical models about the tractor-semitrailer and the air brake system including an ABS controller have been constructed for computer simulation. Also, simple examples are applied to show the usefulness of the program. Designers can use this simulation program for understanding the braking characteristics such as trajectory, braking distance, longitudinal deceleration, lateral deceleration, and yaw rate on various road conditions.

A computer program was developed for the static analusis of a bridge expansion joint mechanism, which is called lazy-tong joint. I t was modelled as a plane truss and statically determinate structure under the assumption of small expansion in bridge girder. The applied load was assumed as a maxium wheel load exerted by a 40th tandem axied tractor-semitrailer truck. By using the developed computer program, reaction forces, axial and bending stresses, deflections, and critical buckling load, etc. of each structural member were analyzed. And they showed good agreement with those analyzed by the comercial F.E.M S/W, ANSYS.

The dynamic responses of highway bridges are varying depending on the features of either traveling vehicles or bridges. In this study, the probabilistic characteristics of dynamic amplification factors of highway bridges due to traveling heavy vehicles have been examined through analytical simulation processes. The truck with tandem axle and tractor with semitrailer are selected as the representative heavy vehicles, which are modeled with three dimensional 7-DOF and 12-DOF models, respectively. The analytical results have been compared with the experimental results of dynamic loading tests and the validity of the analytical models has been examined. Parametric studies on the means and extreme values of amplification factors have been performed with various traffic conditions such as vehicle types, vehicle weights, surface profiles, vehicle velocity, etc.

통행차량에 의한 도로교의 동적응답은 차량이나 교량의 다양한 특성에 따라 변화하는 특성을 가지고 있다. 본 연구에서는 중차량의 통행에 의한 동적응답확대계수의 확률적인 특성을 해석적인 기법으로 분석하였다. 도로교 통행차량들 중에서 대표적인 중차량인 텐덤축트럭과 세미트레일러를 대상으로 하여 동적응답확대계수를 평가하고, 이들을 동적재하시험의 결과와 비교하여 해석기법의 타당성을 검토하였다. 차량형식, 총중량, 노면조도, 재하차량수, 재하위치 등에 따른 동적응답확대계수의 확률적 특성의 변화를 분석하고 현행 시방서 기준과 비교하였다.
