This report describes the testing of the M313 6-ton expandable van in TACOM's Physical Simulation Laboratory. Design modifications were performed to fix several problem areas. The van was mounted to a high-performance motion simulator which excited the system by imparting realistic dynamic motions. A fifth-wheel spherical bearing fixture was designed and utilized to simulate the prime mover- trailer interaction.
