UNDERSTEER VEHICLE STEERING SYSTEM A B S T R A C T A system for producing understeer characteristics in an articulated earthmoving vehicle. A fluidic accelerometer continuously senses lateral acceleration of the vehicle to modify the operator's input signal, causing hydraulic jacks to articulate the vehicle in such a manner as to exhibit an understeer steering characteristic. The accelerometer is mounted at or near to the roll axis of the vehicle to minimize the effects of vehicle roll dynamics upon the signal communi- cated to the steering control system and hydraulic jacks. The accelerometer and hydraulic jack control assemblage is utilized to create understeer characteristics in both follow- up and non-follow-up type steering systems.
