Heavy commercial vehicles and buses — Definitions of properties for the determination of suspension kinematic and compliance characteristics

This document applies to heavy vehicles—that is, to commercial vehicles and buses as defined in ISO 3833—that are covered by the categories M3, N2, N3, O3, and O4 of ECE and EC vehicle regulations. These categories pertain to trucks and trailers with maximum weights above 3,5 tonnes and to buses with maximum weights above 5 tonnes. Vehicle suspension kinematic and compliance (K&C) properties that impact vehicle stability and dynamic behaviour are described in this document and common methods of measurement are outlined. These methods are applicable to heavy vehicles. The measurements are performed on a single unit and typically one or two axles at a time. This document will define or reference the key suspension kinematic and compliance parameters necessary for characterizing and simulating vehicle suspension performance. These parameters also provide system-level descriptions of quasi-static behaviour that can be cascaded into subsystem and component performance targets. The suspension variables required for determining suspension characterization of one vehicle end, i.e. for a single axle or for multiple axles inter-related through suspension configuration (for example, walking-beam), are provided. Metrics pertaining to the chassis connection between the front and rear suspensions are not included. Some typical methods of measurement will be discussed, however detail on how the measurements are executed is not within the scope of this document.

ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards
bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out
through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical
committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International
organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.
ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of
electrotechnical standardization.

ISO 23365:2022(E)
Introduction
The dynamic behaviour of a road vehicle is a very important aspect of active vehicle safety. Any given
vehicle, together with its driver and the prevailing environment, constitutes a closed-loop system that
is unique. The task of evaluating the dynamic behaviour is therefore, very difficult since the significant
interaction of these driver-vehicle-environment elements are each complex in themselves. A complete
and accurate description of the behaviour of the road vehicle shall necessarily involve information
obtained from a number of different tests.
Static properties of the vehicle and its systems can have an important impact on the vehicle dynamic
behaviour and a driver’s or automation’s ability to generate the desired motion. Test conditions have a
strong influence on test results. Therefore, only vehicle dynamic and static properties obtained under
virtually identical test conditions are comparable to one another.
Since this test method quantifies only one small part of the complete vehicle handling characteristics,
the results of these tests can only be considered significant for a correspondingly small part of the
overall dynamic behaviour.
Moreover, insufficient knowledge is available concerning the relationship between overall vehicle
dynamic properties and accident avoidance. A substantial amount of work is necessary to acquire
sufficient and reliable data on the correlation between accident avoidance and vehicle dynamic
properties in general and the results of these tests in particular. Consequently, it is important for any
application of this test method for regulation purposes the proven correlation between test results and
accident statistics.

Heavy commercial vehicles and buses — Definitions of
properties for the determination of suspension kinematic
and compliance characteristics
1  Scope
This document applies to heavy vehicles—that is, to commercial vehicles and buses as defined in
ISO 3833—that are covered by the categories M3, N2, N3, O3, and O4 of ECE and EC vehicle regulations.
These categories pertain to trucks and trailers with maximum weights above 3,5 tonnes and to buses
with maximum weights above 5 tonnes.
Vehicle suspension kinematic and compliance (K&C) properties that impact vehicle stability and
dynamic behaviour are described in this document and common methods of measurement are outlined.
These methods are applicable to heavy vehicles. The measurements are performed on a single unit and
typically one or two axles at a time.
This document will define or reference the key suspension kinematic and compliance parameters
necessary for characterizing and simulating vehicle suspension performance. These parameters also
provide system-level descriptions of quasi-static behaviour that can be cascaded into subsystem and
component performance targets. The suspension variables required for determining suspension
characterization of one vehicle end, i.e. for a single axle or for multiple axles inter-related through
suspension configuration (for example, walking-beam), are provided. Metrics pertaining to the
chassis connection between the front and rear suspensions are not included. Some typical methods of
measurement will be discussed, however detail on how the measurements are executed is not within
the scope of this document.
