Abstract

Comparing Multibody Computer Software Systems in a Vehicle Dynamics context is desirable but difficult. The qualities to be tested are many and include the ability both to model specific features of systems and obtain specific forms of solution. One of several means of comparison is through benchmark testing (or benchmarking). This involves: (1) the design of test problems; (2) the solution of the test problems; (3) comparison of solutions and procedures; and (4) reporting. The process implies the need for: a) some central organisation, which was effectively set up in the year 1990); b) some participants; and c) much exchange of information. This paper records the process of benchmarking, with a view to making it more effective and more efficient in the future.
