Vibration Analysis and Modeling of an Off‐Road Vibratory Roller Equipped with Three Different Cab’s Isolation Mounts

This study proposes a dynamic model of the vibratory roller interacting with the off‐road deformed terrain to analyze the low‐frequency performance of three different cab’s isolation mounts under the different operating conditions. In order to evaluate the ride comfort of the vibratory roller with the different cab’s isolation mounts, a three‐dimensional nonlinear dynamic model is established. The power spectral density (PSD) and the weighted root mean square (RMS) of acceleration responses of the vertical driver’s seat, cab’s pitch, and roll vibrations are chosen as objective functions in the low‐frequency range. Contrastive analysis of low‐frequency vibration characteristics of the vibratory roller with the traditional rubber mounts, the hydraulic mounts, and the pneumatic mounts is carried out. Experimental investigations are also used…
