Efficient road load data acquisition
A successful vehicle durability engineering process starts with gaining a precise understanding of the loads that products will undergo during their anticipated lifetime. Road load data acquisition (or RLDA) is an excellent method for measuring precise vehicle response.
Road load data acquisition (or RLDA) is an excellent method for measuring precise vehicle response. It takes into account all types of essential vehicle and driving parameters, such as mass, inertia, air and rolling resistance, road characteristics, engine loads and vehicle speed. These road load data is used to derive a durability target.
What you will learn:
- How to acquire realistic load data
- How to optimize your acquisition process obtaining high-quality data as fast as possible, for as many vehicles as possible
- Understand how to make durability engineering an integral part of your vehicle development process
See how lead measurement engineer John Davis and his team at General Motors get their road load data acquisition job done and ultimately engineer a good-looking, dependable and long-lasting vehicle of great quality.
