Abstract :
A new method to improve the accuracy of measured axle weight of an in-motion vehicle is proposed and evaluated by application to simulated data composed of a known axle weight and, as a dynamic component, the measured accelerations of an actual vehicle body. From the results, the efficiency of the method is confirmed.
