This paper describes the use of a road simulator by Fiat to determine the effects of vibration and loads imposed on various parts of a vehicle. The instrument has been effective in identifying vibration sources that induce fatigue or discomfort or which may cause inefficient operation or a breakdown. The laboratory tests include clear procedures for obtaining preliminary information or for tracing down existing conditions.
