An experimental system has been developed to facilitate the measurement of vehicle parameters required in dynamic studies of the automobile. This report describes the measuring facilities comprising, basically, a configuration of air bearings. System requirements are outlined based on the methodology adopted for studies involving the vehicle-occupant-terrain-obstacle system. Several procedures and techniques used to measure vehicle suspension and inertial characteristics are also outlined. System performance is illustrated by typical measurements made on a vehicle used in a program of studies directed towards the development of a validated model of the highway cable barrier for parametric studies of vehicle redirection using digital simulation.
