Samenvatting
A testing procedure is intended to be established for a determination of the operational endurance strength of motorcycle and sidecar combination. A finite elements method data record is modified specifically for the condition represented by a motorcycle and sidecar combination. Based on a comparison of actual measurements with the results of a calculation the critical load areas are screened out. Future examinations can rely on calculation using a program adapted to be run on a PC, with checkup measurements reduced to a few critical locations on the vehicle.
