Foreword

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.

International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.

The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards

adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an

International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.

Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent

rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.

ISO 17288-2 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 22, Road vehicles, Subcommittee SC 9, Vehicle

dynamics and road-holding ability.

This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition (ISO 17288-2:2004), of which it constitutes a minor

revision.

ISO 17288 consists of the following parts, under the general title Passenger cars — Free-steer behaviour :

⎯ Part 1: Steering-release open-loop test method
⎯ Part 2: Steering-pulse open-loop test method

Introduction

The main purpose of this part of ISO 17288 is to provide repeatable and discriminatory test results.

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 must necessarily involve information obtained from a number of different

tests.

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, any application of this test method for regulation purposes

will require proven correlation between test results and accident statistics.

Passenger cars — Free-steer behaviour —
Part 2:
Steering-pulse open-loop test method
1 Scope

This part of ISO 17288 specifies a procedure for determining the free control stability of a passenger car as

defined in ISO 3833, by measurement of the transient behaviour following steering pulse input, starting from a

straight-ahead, steady-state status.

NOTE The open loop manoeuvre specified in this part of ISO 17288 is not representative of normal driving

conditions, but is useful for obtaining a measure of vehicle transient behaviour.

2 Normative references

The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document. For dated

references, only the edition cited applies. For undated references, the latest edition of the referenced

document (including any amendments) applies.

passenger cars
3 Terms and definitions

For the purposes of this document, the terms and definitions given in ISO 3833 and ISO 8855 apply.

4 Principle

This test is intended to evaluate the ability of the vehicle to return to a straight path following a steering pulse

input from a straight-ahead, steady-state driving initial condition.

Oscillation of the vehicle is initiated by the application of a single pulse steering input. This is followed by

release of the steering wheel and a period during which the steering wheel is free. The steering-wheel angle

and the vehicle response are measured and recorded. From the recorded signals, characteristic values are

calculated.

5.1 Reference system
The provisions given in ISO 15037-1:2006, 3.1, apply.
5.2 Measurement
Measure the following variables (see ISO 8855):
a) longitudinal velocity (v );
b) lateral acceleration (a );
c) yaw velocity ()ψ ;
d) steering-wheel angle (δ ).
6 Measuring equipment
6.1 Description

All variables shall be measured by means of appropriate transducers, and their time histories shall be

recorded by a multi-channel recording system. Typical operating ranges, and recommended maximum errors

of the transducer and recording system, are given in Table 1.

Table 1 — Variables, their typical operating ranges and recommended maximum errors

Recommended maximum error
Variable Typical operating range of the combined transducer
and recorder system
Longitudinal velocity 0 m/s to +50 m/s ±0,3 m/s
2 2 2
Lateral acceleration
−15 m/s to +15 m/s ±0,1 m/s
Yaw velocity
−50°/s to +50°/s ±0,3°/s
±2° for |δ | u 180°
Steering-wheel angle −360° to +360°
±4° otherwise

Transducers for measuring some of the listed variables are not widely available and not in general use. Many

such instruments are developed by users. If any system error exceeds the recommended maximum value,

this and the actual maximum error shall be stated in the test report given
