Abstract

A method for determining a mass property of a land-based vehicle for cargo transport. The method comprises registering one or more properties of a cargo unit entering the vehicle, wherein at least one of the properties is related to a mass of the cargo unit, estimating a location of the cargo unit in the vehicle, and determining at least one vehicle mass property of the vehicle based on the one or more registered properties and on the estimated location of the cargo unit.

Description

technical field [0001] The present disclosure relates to methods, control units and systems for determining mass characteristics and vehicle dynamics related to land-based vehicles used for cargo transportation, such as trucks and semi-trailers. [0002] The invention can be applied to heavy vehicles such as trucks and construction equipment. Although the invention will be described primarily with respect to semi-trailer vehicles and tractor-semi-trailer combinations, the invention is not limited to this particular vehicle and may be used with other vehicles such as different types of trucks, trailers, forklifts and shipping containers. Background technique [0003] A vehicle navigating a curve or performing a fast maneuver may lose control or even tip over when the speed is too high during the maneuver. A rollover type of event is known as a vehicle rollover. Vehicle loss of control events include, for example, trailer swing and fold, which refers to the uncontrolled fold...
