Analysis of Structural Requirements Necessary for Stable Operation of Buses
Journal Title: Mašinstvo - Year 2017, Vol 14, Issue 1
Abstract
Today's modern vehicles for mass transport of passengers, of which the most common representatives are the buses must comply with the requirements of comfort, wide usage, and in particular the measures of safe driving. In order to meet large requirements along the "life of the vehicle," or even after possible accidents, it is necessary to achieve good and optimum structural solutions of the running gear. This paper analyses and processes some of the initial but very important constructional requirements on the running gear of buses, such as the position of the motor and driving wheels, number of axles and their distance, the management system that provides adequate turning radius and the geometry of controllable wheels. Besides aforementioned this paper also provokes the topic of electric mobility as a structural challenge.
