An extensive study of the dynamic performance of multitrailer vehicles, and the influence of double-drawbar dollies (C-dollies) on that performance is reported. Six vehicle configurations (five double-trailer combinations and one triple) are considered. The performance of the six vehicles is examined using a matrix of seven different converter dollies (an A-dolly and 6 C-dollies) and 15 different vehicle parametric variations (e.g., center-of-gravity height, tire-cornering stiffness, roll stiffness, etc.). The performance quality of the vehicles is judged using measures such as reaward amplification, yaw-damping ratio, static rollover stability, offtracking, and dynamic-load-transfer ratio.
