Abstract:
A vehicle includes a chassis, a plurality of tractive assemblies coupled to the chassis, and a controller. Each tractive assembly includes a tractive element and an actuator coupled to the tractive element and configured to move the tractive element relative to the chassis. The controller is configured to control at least one of the actuators to vary a load supported by one of the tractive assemblies in response to an indication that a portion of a first tractive assembly of the plurality of tractive assemblies is disabled.
