Recently, articulated heavy vehicles (AHVs) with central axle trailers have been widely used in China, especially since issuing the national standard, GB1589-2016. However, traffic accidents involved AHVs with central axle trailers occur frequently. In order to address the problem and improve the stability of AHVs with central axle trailers, this paper generates a 3 degrees of freedom (DOF) yaw-plane AHV model, and analyses its dynamic responses under a simulated evasive maneuver. The influences of different trailer parameters on the AHV high-speed stability are examined. It shows that the dominant parameters affected the stability are trailer axle positions related to its center of gravity (CG), and other trailer geometric parameters. Trailer axle position poses the most important influence on the stability.
