KRC has performed Human Factors
studies for customers to develop the relationship of human subjective
interpretations of vehicle handling in snow to objective vehicle handling
performance data from a proving ground’s road surface. In
this study KRC collected subjective data from the general public after
driving vehicles with various types of drive and stability control systems
on packed snow surfaces. KRC had also instrumented the vehicles to collect
vehicle lateral and longitudinal acceleration, yaw, speed, brake useage
and steering wheel angle and recorded this data for each individual performing
a subjective evaluation. |
