Mathematical model of loading a semi-trailer bearing system with an autonomous diesel power plant on turn

Abstract

Road trains consisting of a tow truck and a semi-trailer are widely used nowadays in Russia for cargo transportation, including in different territories. However, in mountainous operating conditions compared to plain ones, the reliability of the load-bearing system of semitrailers of road trains is significantly reduced, as a result of which there is a mismatch between the flow of semitrailer failures and scheduled repairs, which significantly increases the costs of their operation. Different approaches can be used to reduce these costs. Many domestic and foreign scientists have dealt with the issues of reliability of auto transport systems. Their works contain a lot of valuable information of applied significance, but the reliability of the load bearing system of semi-trailers with an autonomous diesel power plant of road trains and its improvement have not received sufficient attention.
