In this article, we address the determination of turning radius and lateral acceleration acting on a vehicle up to 3.5 t gross vehicle mass (GVM) and cargo in curves based on turning radius and speed. Global Navigation Satellite System with Inertial Navigation System (GNSS/INS) dual-antenna sensor is used to measure acceleration, speed, and vehicle position to determine the turning radius and determine the proper formula to calculate long average lateral acceleration acting on vehicle and cargo. The two methods for automatic selection of events were applied based on stable lateral acceleration value and on mean square error (MSE) of turning radiuses. The models of calculation of turning radius are valid for turning radius within 5-70 m for both methods of automatic selection of events with mean root mean square error (RMSE) 1.88 m and 1.32 m. The models of calculation of lateral acceleration are valid with mean RMSE of 0.022 g and 0.016 g for both methods of automatic selection of events. The results of the paper may be applied in the planning and implementation of packing and cargo securing procedures to calculate average lateral acceleration acting on vehicle and cargo based on turning radius and speed for vehicles up to 3.5 t GVM. The results can potentially be applied for the deployment of autonomous vehicles in solutions grouped under the term of Logistics 4.0.
