Description:
Off-road recreation vehicles are an important source of emissions and make a disproportionately high contribution to the emissions inventory. Here 58 off-road motorcycles and 39 all-terrain vehicles (ATVs) were instrumented to collect activity data. The activity data for motorcycles and ATVs varied significantly depending on the type of terrain, the type of off highway vehicle, and personal riding habits. The most rapid transitions in speed were typically observed for motorcycles operated on motocross tracks or in trail riding. Over similar terrain, motorcycles had slightly higher top speeds than the ATVs. The highest observed speeds were for motorcycles in open terrain riding conditions. Interestingly, average speeds were comparable between different types of terrain. ... Read more

Product Description
Vehicles handling and ride comfort are essential subject because these vehicles operate at different environments. Improving the comfortability enables the drivers to derive for a long time at critical situations with full activity. This work deals with dynamics and control policies analysis of semi-active suspension systems for off-road vehicles. Comprehensive comparison on three different configurations; 2-axle, 3-axle and 4-axle half-vehicle models were conducted to analyze the effect of using semi-active control policies. The application of several control policies of semi-active suspension system, namely skyhook; ground-hook and hybrid controls have been analyzed and compared with passive systems. Sprung mass acceleration, suspension deflection and tyre deflection responses were analyzed for measurements of ride quality and road handling. Analysis in frequency domain transfer function, time domain transient state and time domain steady state were conducted on each of the models. ... Read more

Product Description
Four-wheel drive, 4WD, 4x4 ("four by four"), or AWD ("allwheel drive") is a four-wheeled vehicle with a drivetrainthat allows all four wheels to receive torque from theengine simultaneously. While many people associate the termwith off-road vehicles and Sport utility vehicles, poweringall four wheels provides better control in normal road carson many surfaces, and is an important part of rally racing.In abbreviations such as 4x4, the first figure is normallytaken as the total number of wheels and the second isnormally taken as the number of powered wheels (the numbersare actually axle-ends to allow for more than one wheel oneach end of an axle). 4x2 means a four-wheel vehicle inwhich engine power is transmitted to only two axle-ends:the front two in front-wheel drive or the rear two in rear- wheel drive. ...
