Abstract

<div class="htmlview paragraph">This paper evaluates the heavy tractor-trailer handling dynamics model used in the National Advanced Driving Simulator. The comparison between simulation and experiments were done using lane change, slowly increasing steer, pulse steer, step steer, and straight-line braking maneuvers. The paper discusses tractor-trailer instrumentation and the results of field experiments.</div>
