Motion Base Simulation Test of the M840E1 Dolly Set

Abstract

This report describes the testing of the modified M840E1 dolly set in the Physical Simulation Laboratory at TACOM. A motion base simulator was designed, assembled, and utilized to produce motion on the dolly set. This motion represents typical terrain/speed scenarios encountered by dolly sets. The test plan executed followed the initial production test of the M840 dolly set. The M840 dolly set consists of one front and one rear, two-wheeled dollies designed to pick up and transport various shelters which are extensively used by the Air Force as repair, maintenance, and storage shops.
