Utilization of Multibody Simulations at the Verification of the Stabilizer Bar of the Trolleybus

摘要

SKODA VYZKUM s.r.o. (now Vyzkumny a zkusebni Ustav Plzen s.r.o.) cooperated on the development of the NEOPLAN DMA low-floor articulated trolleybus indented for the City of Boston. Multibody models and finite element models of the trolleybus were utilized in the stage of the vehicle design. The effect of using the rear section stabilizer on driving properties of the trolleybus was investigated utilizing the multibody simulations among others.
