Examination of an Overturned Towed Vehicle

Abstract

If a vehicle! eaves the on road, and enters the terrain, its movement is determined by the physical and mechanical laws of terrain vehicle interaction. The problem with the ru off road!acc idents is that the effect of the soil physical properties are not known clearly, so that in many cases only approximate results can be provided! by! the! accident! analysts.! The! objects! of! the! project were to create a soil database, and determine the friction coefficient between the vehicle body and the terrain surface.
