Samenvatting
This study presents a vehicle behaviour analysis method, based on a real accident. This method brings together the use of open-loop numerical simulation and track testing. This is associated with analysis results enabling both objective (a variety in curves) and subjective (representation of vehicle behaviour using synthesized images) judgements. Both direct observation, in real time, of the vehicle's movement on its trajectory, and the accompanying timing diagram appear to provide very useful data explaining the physical phenomena. By introducing the driver in the control loop, the method can further be advanced.
