Real-time correction of vehicle load curve for dynamometer testing, and associated systems and methods

Abstract:

Real-time correction of vehicle load curve for dynamometer testing, and associated systems and methods are disclosed herein. In one embodiment, a method for replicating an on-road performance and/or a failure of a road vehicle in a test facility includes applying a load curve to a controller of the test facility and testing a test vehicle in the test facility using the load curve. The method also includes verifying whether the performance/failure is replicated on the test vehicle, and if the performance/failure is not replicated, changing at least one parameter in the load curve.
