Abstract :
Virtual prototype technology and its corresponding software have been used to model and simulate a certain light truck. The main consideration has been on the method of model building and validation and use of virtual prototype technology as an alternative of the real vehicle test. This has changed the traditional design process and made the concurrent design reality
