Simplified, linear analysis is made of lateral motions of tractortrailer combination consisting of tractor, semitrailer, and full trailer, traveling at constant forward speed; equations of motion are derived for combined vehicle, and solutions of resulting equations are obtained and discussed in terms of steady-state and transient response to steering control; results of exploratory calculations are presented to indicate manner in which dynamic lateral response is influenced by various vehicle design parameters.
