Stability and tipping safety are among the key issues in the development of mobile machines. The potential risk is based on the design, the work tasks, the human-machine-process interaction and the performance requirements. Methods for evaluating and monitoring stability and tipping safety were developed in the research project. The example application truck loading crane with standing-supported work process was examined. The associated machine modeling as well as simulative and experimental analyzes focus both on monitoring within the process and on the preliminary consideration in terms of a lability forecast. Beam structures and multi-body simulations are used, which are compared to conventional analytical rigid body considerations.
