Determination of Load Capacity and Deformation for Modular Trailer

摘要

There are nearly infinite module combination and cargo support methods for modular trailer. By summarizing moments produced by every force and revised by chassis permitted moment the load capacity can be obtained with a giving support deviation. And by calculating unit force's virtual work, the deformation of the trailer chassis can be found in same support deviation. These algorithms are very brief and can be embedded in other software.
