  • Reducing drive file development time for a vehicle road test simulator
    Patent number: 7194888
    Abstract: A method of vehicle suspension testing includes conducting actual road testing of a vehicle including collecting data, and generating a drive file from the collected data for road test simulation. A vehicle suspension parameter is changed to result in a changed vehicle. Initial simulated road testing of the changed vehicle is conducted using the drive file, and results from the simulated and actual road testing are compared using acceptability criteria to determine whether to conduct further actual road testing of the changed vehicle before conducting further simulated road testing of the changed vehicle in response to the changed suspension parameter. Further simulated road testing of the changed vehicle is conducted if the acceptability criteria are met. Otherwise, further actual road testing of the changed vehicle is first conducted to develop a new drive file for use with additional simulated road testing of the changed vehicle.

  • Methodology for vehicle box component durability test development
    Patent number: 7174776
    Abstract: A vehicle component test method includes measuring first acceleration data at discrete locations on a first vehicle frame during an actual road test of a first vehicle and measuring second acceleration data at the discrete locations on a second vehicle frame of a second vehicle mounted on a test fixture. The second acceleration data is compared to the first acceleration data and an acceleration error is generated. The test fixture is adjusted based on the acceleration error until the acceleration error is within a predetermined range.
