reportActive / Technical Report | Accession Number: ADA206769 | Open PDF

Abstract:

Vehicle design and improvements in design are evaluated through accurate, quantitative measurements of numerous performance and operational characteristics. With each added capability requirement, a military vehicle becomes more complex, and a greater variety of equipment is needed to support testing and evaluation. This TOP describes basic equipment and instrumentation for automotive field testing and its applications in determining vehicle performance, shock and vibration characteristics, and interiorexterior steady state noise levels. Keywords Test equipment Automotive test equipment.
