Experimental Characterization of Bus Articulation driving around Certification Circuit

Client

Company operating in the automotive sector that wanted to expand its product range with a new component in order to offer a complete system to its customers.

Transport: Automotive

Estensimetria, HBM, CATman

2021

Objectives:

Initial Situation: Existing articulation mounted on a bus; real-world behavior unknown.

Performed Analyses: Extensometric, accelerometric, potentiometric, and gyroscopic acquisitions aimed at characterizing the system.

Goal: Understand the actual operation of the system while driving around the circuit.

Results:

Identified Cause: Complex operation of the system, with behavior of the articulation unknown.

Proposed Solution: Design of the measurement system to be used for behavior characterization, application of instrumentation, data recording, and processing.

Achieved Results: Greater understanding of the dynamic behavior of the articulation during operation in a certification circuit.
