Good day,
Does anybody know of any research that has been done to look at the affects that turbulence generated by a transport truck (tractor trailer) would have on a passenger vehicle that is following the truck ? I've come across some material involving passing maneuvers and its affect on the passenger vehicle stability, but nothing related to following vehicles.
I'm trying to see if this could be a viable fluids project. Unfortunately, most of my experience is in hyraulics so I'm not entirely familiar with the type of reserach/information that is avialble for road vehicles.
Regards,
John
