Mobility Assessment of the Roland Wheeled Vehicle System. Report 1. Results of Field Tests,

Abstract

The purpose of the WES study was to: Obtain experimental ride quality (ride and shock) data at the driver's and commander's stations to obtain handling (control and stability) data for the ROLAND Wheeled Vehicle; Use the experimental data to develop the appropriate ride and shock relations for use in the AMM; Provide acceleration data and strain gage data to Boeing for assessment of structural integrity; Provide limited test data that would indicate side slope and turning capabilities of the proposed ROLAND Wheeled Vehicle; and Make mobility predictions of the ROLAND Wheeled Vehicle and other vehicles in a European and Mid-East scenario based on the AMM (see Report 2).
