Dynamic Simulation Tool Development for Planetary Rovers

A dynamic computer simulator was developed to study planetary rover mobility. The simulator was validated for step-obstacle negotiation by comparing simulation results with a quasi-static analysis of a rocker-bogie suspension. In addition, sample rover wheels were constructed and experiments were ca...
