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 11026 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 22, Road vehicles, Subcommittee SC 9, Vehicle
dynamics and road-holding ability.

Introduction
The main purpose of this International Standard 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.

Heavy commercial vehicles and buses — Test method for roll
stability — Closing-curve test
1 Scope
This International Standard specifies an open-loop test method for determining the roll stability of a vehicle
negotiating a curve on dry surface.
It applies to heavy vehicles, that is commercial vehicles, commercial vehicle combinations, buses and
articulated buses as defined in ISO 3833 (trucks and trailers with maximum weight above 3,5 t and buses and
articulated buses with maximum weight above 5 t, according to ECE and EC vehicle classification, categories
M3, N2, N3, O3 and O4).
The method is intended for vehicles equipped with electronic roll stability control systems.

3 Terms, definitions and symbols
For the purposes of this document, the terms, definitions and symbols given in ISO 15037-2, ISO 8855 and
the following apply.
3.1
jerk
rate of change of lateral acceleration
3.2
steady-state rollover threshold
maximum magnitude of lateral acceleration that a vehicle can sustain during steady-state cornering on a flat
and level surface without rolling over
4 Principle
The objective of this test method is to determine the effect of roll stability control on the roll stability of a
vehicle travelling at constant longitudinal velocity on a path with a constantly increasing curvature, a closing
curve. Also, effects on the yaw stability will be considered. The initial state for the test is driving in a straight
line at constant longitudinal velocity.

ISO 11026:2010(E)
The path is defined by the curvature rate, k , which gives the curvature, κ, along the path:
c
κ=⋅ks
c
where s is the distance along the path.
At constant longitudinal velocity, V , the jerk, k , is constant.

The path can be expressed in Cartesian coordinates in the earth-fixed system as follows:

where ν is the course angle, calculated as follows:

The severity of the test depends both on the jerk and on the longitudinal velocity. Higher velocity on a path
with a certain jerk is more demanding than a lower velocity on another path with the same jerk. Thus, varying
the jerk by changing the velocity on a given path is not identical to changing the path while maintaining the
velocity.
5 Measuring equipment
The measuring equipment, transducer installation and data processing shall be in accordance with
ISO 15037-2.
6 Variables
The variables of motion used to describe the behaviour of the vehicle shall be related to the intermediate axis
system (X, Y, Z) of the first vehicle unit (see ISO 8855). For the purpose of this International Standard, the
location of the reference point is at ground level in the plane of symmetry and at the longitudinal position of the
first axle of the first vehicle unit.
The following variables shall be determined for compliance with this International Standard:
⎯ longitudinal velocity, V ;
X
⎯ lateral acceleration, a ;
Y
⎯ indication of intervention of the electronic stability control system;
⎯ indication of roll instability, which may be indicated by the outriggers touching the ground if they are
mounted at a height that corresponds to roll instability;
⎯ indication of yaw instability of vehicle combinations, which may be indicated by the engagement of the
anti-jackknife device if it is mounted in such a way that it allows an articulation angle of at least 45°.
