The main indicators for mobility of a multipurpose wheeled vehicle are the maximum and average technical velocity, and they are mainly determined by power-to-weight ratio and the parameters of the suspension. As our analysis shows, with the increase of the power-to-weight ratio of the vehicle and its weight, the growth rate of the velocity is reduced, and after reaching a certain value, the velocity remains almost constant. This is due to the fact that for operating conditions of the multi-purpose wheeled vehicle, movement on roads with different degrees of uneven distribution of the rolling resistance and adhesion, in both transverse and longitudinal directions, is typical. In this investigation we evaluate the effectiveness of the main methods of power distribution among drive wheels of the multi-purpose wheeled vehicles.

This paper is devoted to development of methodology of system analysis of power distribution systems and methods of synthesis of objective laws in the power distribution among drive wheels of a multipurpose wheel vehicle. The methodology of system analysis provides for formulation of the problem; structural analysis of power distribution systems; the synthesis of objective laws in the power distribution; development of methods for their implementation. The methodology is based on the theory of the synthesis of technical systems. In this paper parameters of characteristics of control actions have been determined in accordance with specified requirements to effectiveness of the multipurpose wheeled vehicle expressed in the form of formulated performance criteria.
