A testing methodology has been proposed in this paper, to compare the load transfer derived from solid and liquid cargoes when the carrying vehicle is subjected to a lateral acceleration in a tilt table. Besides the type of cargo, the other factors
(a) One-quarter fill level
(b) One-half fill level
(c) Three-quarter fill level
(d) Fast input
considered are the fill level and the rate at which the considered are the fill level and the rate at which the acceleration input is acceleration input is exerted on the vehicleexerted on the vehicle. The acceleration The acceleration input can represent the entering of the carrying vehicle into a input can represent the entering of the carrying vehicle into a curved portion curved portion of of aa road.
The testing device integrates the needed components to measure the fourmeasure the four--wheel loads of the wheel loads of the carrying vehicle, while carrying vehicle, while providing different times to attain providing different times to attain aa 10°10° angle angle for the tilt table. for the tilt table.
The performance measure selected is significant to assess the rollover trend of a vehicle, on the basis of the wheel loads at both sides of the vehicle. both sides of the vehicle.
The outputs from the experiments suggest that the sloshing suggest that the sloshing cargo transfercargo transferss the greater loads, the greater loads, regardless of the fill level and regardless of the fill level and acceleration rate inputacceleration rate input, as a result , as a result of the shifting of the center of of the shifting of the center of gravitygravity of the liquidof the liquid, and of of the the dynamic vibration at the end of dynamic vibration at the end of the perturbation input. In this respect, while the solid cargo the perturbation input. In this respect, while the solid cargo exhibits an initial peak and decay, the exhibits an initial peak and decay, the sloshing cargo exhibits sloshing cargo exhibits several oscillations of the saseveral oscillations of the same magnitude, which is attributed me magnitude, which is attributed to the to the liquid inertia and liquid inertia and to the to the reflection of the surface waves. reflection of the surface waves.

Longitudinal Load transfer light sensitivity to cargo type, fill level and the impact distance.
Maximum sloshing effect for the case of the lowest fill level 12
while for half fill level the sloshing cargo performs as a dynamic damper, with a maximum effect of 6 in the case of medium impact input
The sloshing effect for the highest fill level yielded a mixed output, with the maximum impact distance producing a positive but moderate effect.
The interaction between the sloshing cargo and the carrying vehicle has been predominantly studied from the perspective of road safety, aiming at characterizing the effects of cargo motion on both, the lateral stability of the vehicles and the respective braking performance. In this regard, one main issue is to objectively clarify the potential effects of the sloshing cargoes, when compared with solid or non-sloshing cargoes. While there are abundant theoretical studies about the comparative effects of one substance and the other on the vehicle performance, only few experimental studies have been reported with that approach. In this paper, the outputs from an experimental study involving the longitudinal load transfer of sloshing and non-sloshing cargoes, is presented. The longitudinal load transfer is characterized in this paper on the basis of the moment of the reaction forces at the wheel-support interface, with respect to the impact spot. Results suggest that for one-quarter fill level, the sloshing cargo produces an amplification of the performance measure (12% maximum) while at half fill level the sloshing cargo damps the outputs (6.31 % reduction), while at high fill levels, the sloshing effect is mixed, as a function of the impact input, from -1.1% at low impact distance, to +6.6 for large impact distance.
