What is the measurement system in ProjectChrono?

[Alex Teti]

Also, how do you change it, and where is it in the documentation?

Dear Alex

Chrono has no measurement system. You can assume that lengths time and mass are meters seconds kilograms, or whatever other system you like. Just keep it consistent.

Alex, just one comment to Alessandro’s answer: the Chrono::Vehicle module assumes SI units.
