The principle of remote parameter control(RPC) and test method of road simulator test are analyzed, and the road simulation test of motorcycle is implemented with road simulator produced by MTS company. Firstly, by disposing strain gauge and accelerometer, the load spectrum of motorcycle is sampled when the motorcycle runs on gravel road and concrete road with constant speed. Then using the front and rear axle acceleration as desired response signals, the simulation iteration and road simulation test are conducted. At last, the key problems of motorcycle road simulation test are solved. The result shows that the desired response signals and the monitor signals are well matched, and the road load spectrum of motorcyle is accurately reproduced.

In actual engineering, the actual road test or indoor bench test is usually used to collect the data of the road load of the parts to acquire the fatigue life estimation of the auto parts. This paper proposes a method for load spectrum construction based on the mixed distribution probability model using the data of the road load spectrum collected in the test site. Pau Ta criteria outlier elimination and wavelet signal denoising are applied to analyze the original road load spectrum data. Then the maximum likelihood estimation method is used to estimate the generalized Pareto distribution parameters of all excesses. The Pareto distribution is also employed to extrapolate the load spectrum. Through the characteristic analysis of the load spectrum, the one-dimensional and two-dimensional program load spectrum of the hub is established based on the mixed probability distribution model, which provides a theoretical basis for the life prediction of the hub. In addition, the research results of this paper provide inspirations for the fatigue life prediction and fatigue durability bench test of automotive parts subjected to the complexity and variability of random loads.

In order to study the fatigue reliability of taxis, a test method that correlated typical user road with proving ground reliability road is proposed. According to the result of investigation, after taking the road test on the user road, the load spectrum of taxis on the condition of typical user road is obtained. Then the rain flow counting method is used to obtain the load distribution matrixes through analyzing the two groups of data that are tested above , and with pseudo damage as a quantitative basis for the calculation of taxis fatigue damage that generated from load spectrum, an equivalent relationship is established between the two. The calculation results indicate that the ratio of damage of the typical user road to proving ground reliability road is 1 to 148.8, if regarding 600,000 km as total scrapped mileage of a taxi, 4,000 km reliability test on proving ground can achieve the same damage.

Road load spectrum is not only the prerequisites of fatigue reliability analysis and test of AMT(Automated Manual Transmission) actuating mechanism, but also the input and boundary conditions of CAE(Computer Aided Engineering). Based on analysis of AMT motion and force, the measuring points of road load spectrum are determined, and the accelerometers and strain gauges are installed. Then the road load spectrum of AMT actuating mechanism is collected on Xiangfan Automobile Proving Ground according to related standards. At the same time the acquired road load spectrum is analyzed, such as pretreatment, repeatability checking and statistical analysis. The results indicate that the acquired road load spectrum is well reliable and repeatable, which provides effective basic data for design, analysis and verification of AMT actuating mechanism.

ABSTRACT The use of studded tires has been a subject of controversy from the time they came into market. While studded tires contribute to traffic safety under severe winter conditions by increasing tire friction on icy roads, they also cause damage to the road surface when running on bare roads. Consequently, one of the main challenges in studded tire development is to reduce road wear while still ensuring a good grip on ice. Therefore, a research project was initiated to gain understanding about the mechanisms and influencing parameters involved in road wear by studded tires. A test method using the institute's internal drum test bench was developed. Furthermore, mechanisms causing road wear by studded tires were derived from basic analytical models. These mechanisms were used to identify the main parameters influencing road wear by studded tires. Using experimental results obtained with the test method developed, the expected influences were verified. Vehicle driving speed and stud mass were found to be major factors influencing road wear. This can be explained by the stud impact as a dominant mechanism. By means of the test method presented, quantified and comparable data for road wear caused by studded tires under controllable conditions can be obtained. The mechanisms allow predicting the influence of tire construction and variable operating conditions on road wear.

Background:: In the process of high-speed driving, the wheel hub is constantly subjected to the impact load from the ground. Therefore, it is important to estimate the fatigue life of the hub in the design and production process. Objective:: This paper introduces a method to study the fatigue life of car hub based on the road load collected from test site. Methods:: Based on interval analysis, the distribution characteristics of load spectrum are analyzed. The fatigue life estimation of one - dimensional and two - dimensional load spectra is compared by compiling load spectra. Results:: According to the S-N curve cluster and the one-dimensional program load spectrum, the estimated range fatigue life of the hub is 397,100 km to 529,700 km. For unsymmetrical cyclic loading, each level means and amplitude of load were obtained through the Goodman fatigue empirical formula, and then according to S-N curve clusters in the upper and lower curves and two-dimensional program load spectrum, estimates the fatigue life of wheel hub of the interval is 329900 km to 435200 km, than one-dimensional load spectrum fatigue life was reduced by 16.9% - 17.8%. Conclusion:: This paper lays a foundation for the prediction of fatigue life and the bench test of fatigue durability of auto parts subjected to complex and variable random loads. At the same time, the research method can also be used to estimate the fatigue life of other bearing parts or high-speed moving parts and assemblies.

AbstractOil leak from vehicles is one of the most common pollution types of the road. The spilled oil could be retained on the surface and spread in the air voids of the road, which results in a decrease in the friction coefficient of the road, affects driving safety, and causes damage to pavement materials over time. Photocatalytic degradation through nano-TiO2 is a safe, long-lasting, and sustainable technology among the many methods for treating oil contamination on road surfaces. In this study, the nano-TiO2 photocatalytic degradation effect of road surface oil pollution was evaluated through the lab experiment. First, a glass dish was used as a substrate to determine the basic working condition of the test; then, a test method considering the impact of different oil erosion degrees was proposed to eliminate the effect of oil erosion on asphalt pavement and leakage on cement pavement, which led to the development of a lab test method for the nano-TiO2 photocatalytic degradation effect of oil pollution on different road surfaces.

The test system for technical abilities of unmanned vehicles is gradually developed from the single test to comprehensive test. The pre-established test and evaluation system can promote the development of unmanned ground vehicles. The 2009 Future Challenge: Intelligent Vehicles and Beyond (FC’09) pushed China's unmanned vehicles out of laboratories. This paper proposed to design a more scientific and comprehensive test system for future competitions to better guide and regulate the development of China's unmanned vehicles. According to the design idea of stage by stage and level by level, the hierarchical test content from simple to advanced, from local to overall is designed. Then the hierarchic test environment is established according to the levels of test content. The test method based on multi-platform and multi-sensor is put forward to ensure the accuracy of test results. The testing criterion framework is set up to regulate future unmanned vehicle contests and to assess the unmanned vehicles scientifically and accurately.
