With the mandatory implementation of ESC for trucks starting in 2023, domestic truck manufacturers in South Korea are advocating for a relaxation of the maximum safe slope angle to achieve cost savings. However, there is a lack of research on the dynamic safety of trucks based on ESC installation and the relaxation of the maximum safe slope angle. This study evaluates the relationship between static safety factor (SSF) and the maximum safe slope angle, analyzing the dynamic stability of trucks through simulation considering various experimental variables. The results quantitatively demonstrate the impact of relaxing the maximum safe slope angle on dynamic safety and provide recommendations for future safety regulations.

In this paper, we propose a dynamic stability prediction method for heavy vehicles based on Lateral Load Transfer Ratio. The key factors influencing vehicle roll motion are the vehicle's load, the position of the center of mass, the tread and the vehicle speed. Using these factors, we derive the lateral load transfer ratio (LTR) formula. In addition, we investigated LTR changes and vehicle rollover of heavy vehicles in various scenarios using TruckSim. As a result, the threshold value of the change rate of the LTR at which the vehicle rolls over was 0.68-0.72. Finally, we performed a numerical experiment to prevent rollover by calculating the optimal speed in the rollover situation.
