Summary:

The dynamic safety concept comprises all the active safetyvehicle characteristics supporting the driver in critical dynamicmaneuvers. Dynamic safety is therefore a major active safetyrequirement with great potential for reducing road accidentsthroughout the world. It is the combination of not only activechassis systems (ESC, ABS...) but also passive chassis systems(tires, suspension...) which determines the overall dynamic safetyperformance of the vehicle.This paper describes a set of test procedures which cover withonly a few specific maneuvers the widest possible range of criticaldynamic situations. Beyond a simple pass/fail result, these testprocedures will be able to quantify and therefore compare thedynamic safety performance. These results could be used by thesuitable organizations to define a rating system to therebyincrease public awareness of the dynamic safety performance ofvehicles on the market. During the development of the testprocedures, state-of-the-art test instrumentation is considered inorder to maximize test objectiveness and repeatability.Furthermore, special emphasis is given to normalize test resultswith the aim of avoiding track/grip dependency and adapting theassessment to the different vehicle types.This paper summarizes the latest developments corresponding tothe stability assistance domain of the European project eVALUE(Testing and Evaluation Methods of ICT-based Safety Systems, FP7 -ICT 1st call, grant agreement numbers 215607). Its main focus is todefine objective methods for the assessment of active safetyperformance
