Determining the constraint reactions of awheeled robotic vehicle with one steerable wheel

  • Published:
International Applied Mechanics Aims and scope

The reactions of the nonholonomic constraints of a wheeled robotic vehicle with one steerable wheel are determined. Simplified (asymptotic) relations are derived in addition to the exact ones. They are used to estimate the reactions. The efficiency of the approximate formulas is demonstrated by an example
