Abstract

In this research, the energy stability level method is used for examining the stable state of Field Robot under effects of swing motion, at particular postures of manipulator, and terrain conditions. The energy stability level is calculated by using the dynamic models of Field Robot, subjected to the concept of equilibrium plane and support boundary. The results, simulated by using computing program for estimating the potential overturning of Field Robot, supply useful predictions of stability analysis for designers and operators.
