Abstract

Content: A mathematical model was developed to simulate three-dimensional motor-scraper overturns. From the results data necessary for the ROPS (Roll-Over Protective Structures) tests, such as, kinetic energy and the positions and velocity of the motor-scraper are obtained. The output from the simulation program were visualized by using graphic displays or plotting.
