In recent years, an articulate-type steering vehicle, which makes a turn in smaller area compared to an Ackerman-type steering vehicle, is developed and practically used on agriculture and construction sites. Since the articulated vehicles are generally equipped with tire wheels, it could be possibly stuck on soft ground due to the high ground pressure under the wheels. In this paper, we consider an articulated vehicle with four track units instead of the tire wheels, which we expect more trafficability on soft ground. In order to clarify the basic characteristics of turning motion of the vehicle, numerical analyses have been conducted on various running conditions solving the equations of motion constructed for the vehicle. For the validity of the mathematical model, the numerical results were compared with the experimental data of a scale model.
