Abstract In order to study how the nonlinear relationship between tire cornering force and sideslip angle affect the driving stability of tractor- semitrailer, mathematical model of tractor- semitrailer is established by using dynamics theory, and Simulink software is used to simulated analysis. Yaw velocity amplitude of tractor, lateral acceleration amplitude of tractor, yaw velocity amplitude of semitrailer and lateral acceleration amplitude of semitrailer are selected as evaluation indexes to analyze how the mass of semitrailer, fifth wheel lead and track width affect the driving stability of tractor- semitrailer. Simulation results show that it can improve the driving stability of tractor- semitrailer to reduce the mass of semitrailer and to increase fifth wheel lead and track width.
