Study on the effects of agricultural tractor operation conditions on ride comfort
Keywords:
Agricultural tractor, Operating conditions, Dynamic model, Ride comfortAbstract
The operating conditions have a direct effect on ride comfort as well as the performance of agricultural tractor driver. In order to evaluate the effect of the operating conditions on vehicle ride comfort, vehicle operating conditions cases such as an implement tractor and plow are analyzed and evaluated based on a half -vehicle dynamic model of an agricultural tractor. The values of the root mean square (r.m.s) accelerations of the vertical driver and pitch cab based on the international standard (ISO) 2631 -1997 are chosen as objective functions to evaluate the effects of vehicle operating conditions on ride comfort. The study results show that the operating conditions greatly affect on vehicle ride comfort, especially vehicle moves different ground conditions at case 1.
