Abstract:Modularity in vehicle systems can reduce total lifecycle cost and improve adaptability for ground military fleets. This paper quantifies the adaptability of vehicle fleets to changes in supply route characteristics defined by route distance, threat level, and damage probability. Each characteristic is discretized into three levels, and the adaptability analysis is performed over 27 scenarios with significantly different characteristics. Fleet adaptability is measured in terms of two fleet-level metrics, namely… Show more
