Electrification: Adjusting to Customer Pace

Nikola Corporation and Link Engineering Company recently collaborated to validate a Computer-Aided Engineering (CAE) model against Road Load Data (RLDA) collected from an instrumented vehicle on a proving ground. The test required extensive instrumentation to collect data that would accurately reflect the effects typical and atypical roads have on a truck and its components. This data is then used for simulations and predictive modeling. Given the tight timeline, LINK was required to complete the vehicle instrumentation work within just two weeks.
