The VehicleCharacteristics package¶

Semantics of the VehicleCharacteristics package¶

The information that is modelled in the “VehicleCharacteristics” package shall identify a set of vehicle characteristics, some of whose values can be specified using comparative operators (e.g. greater than ‘x’ but less than ‘y’).

VehicleCharacteristics class

An instance of the “VehicleCharacteristics” class shall allow a supplier to identify a base set of vehicle characteristics.

Emissions class

The “Emissions” class may be used to specify a vehicle emission level either by Euro-norm, by selfdefined emission categories or by a low emission level flag.

GrossWeightCharacteristics class

The “GrossWeightCharacteristics” class may be used to allow a supplier to identify the actual gross weight of a vehicle. By providing two instances of this class a supplier can specify the gross weight as being between a lower and upper limit.

HeightCharacteristic class

The “HeightCharacteristic” class may be used to allow a supplier to identify the actual height of a vehicle. By providing two instances of this class a supplier can specify the height as being between a lower and upper limit.

LengthCharacteristic class

The “LengthCharacteristic” class may be used to allow a supplier to identify the actual length of a vehicle. By providing two instances of this class a supplier can specify the length as being between a lower and upper limit.

WidthCharacteristic class

The “WidthCharacteristic” class may be used to allow a supplier to identify the actual width of a vehicle. By providing two instances of this class a supplier can specify the width as being between a lower and upper limit.

HeaviestAxleWeightCharacteristic class

The “HeaviestAxleWeightCharacteristic” class may be used to allow a supplier to identify the actual heaviest axle weight of a vehicle. By providing two instances of this class a supplier can specify the heaviest axle weight as being between a lower and upper limit.

NumberOfAxlesCharacteristic class

The “NumberOfAxlesCharacteristic” class may be used to allow a supplier to identify the actual number of axles on a vehicle. By providing two instances of this class a supplier can specify the number of axles as being between a lower and upper limit.
