Application of a group of ground-based robotic means as a modular means of evacuation of equipment

Abstract

The possibilities of improving the means of evacuation of general and special purpose vehicles on a wheeled and tracked platform have reached technological limits. The prospects for further development of evacuation facilities are associated with their construction on a modular principle. A group of ground-based robotic means, generally heterogeneous, can be used as evacuation vehicle modules. In relation to a group of homogeneous robotic means, a method has been developed for calculating the required number of them to achieve the necessary trac-tion force, taking into account the significant variability of possible physical-geographical and road-ground condi-tions. The obtained results of mathematical modeling allow us to conclude about the high efficiency of the use of modular means of evacuation of equipment.
