The traditional chassis has the problems of low trafficability and poor stability under complex and changeable unstructured conditions. Thus, a wheel rail composite chassis is proposed. The chassis had a tracked travel mechanism at the front wheels and a wheeled travel mechanism at the rear wheels. This study presents the design, theoretical analysis and dynamic simulation analysis of the chassis. The maximum values of the passability of the wheel–track composite chassis that can be passed were calculated according to the relevant parameters. Furthermore, the chassis was modeled and simulated using RecurDyn to verify whether the values were reasonable. According to different values of the terrain, slope, vertical obstacle height and trench width, the change regularity of the track tension and driving torque of the chassis were obtained. The chassis is designed to improve the vehicle’s ability to operate under complex and diverse unstructured conditions.

Aiming at the problem of sparse measurement points due to test conditions in engineering, a smoothing method based on zero-padding in the wavenumber domain is proposed to increase data density. Firstly, the principle of data extension and smoothing is introduced. The core idea of this principle is to extend the discrete data series by zero-padding in the wavenumber domain. The conversion between the spatial and wavenumber domains is achieved using the Discrete Fourier Transform (DFT) and the Inverse Discrete Fourier Transform (IDFT). Then, two sets of two-dimensional discrete random data are extended and smoothed, respectively, and the results verify the effectiveness and feasibility of the algorithm. The method can effectively increase the density of test data in engineering tests, achieve smoothing and extend the application to areas related to data processing.
