Based on multi-body dynamic method, a combined braking system model with two disc brakes and four drum brakes were built. On the basis of this model, a rigid-flexible coupling model of a heavy-duty truck with full-floating cab mount system, air suspension system with four air springs and taper-leaf-spring system was built. Some simulation calculations were performed in ADAMS software environment to analyze vehicle braking performance on high adhesive road surface under empty and full load conditions. Validity of the model was verified by comparing the simulation results with experiment data. The results show that the rigid-elastic coupling model of heavy-duty truck with multi-axis braking system established in this paper is valid, and it can simulate well vertical load distribution between axes generated by the inertia forces on braking. So it is feasible to analyze and optimize vehicle braking performance of a heavy-duty truck using virtual prototyping technology in product R&D stage.
