SIMULATION DEVICE, SIMULATION METHOD, AND PROGRAM

A simulation device (200), provided with: an acceleration computation unit (211) for calculating acceleration information indicating the acceleration of a measurement vehicle at each point in time during travel, on the basis of travel history information, which is acquired on the basis of actual travel by the measurement vehicle along a predetermined travel route; and a vehicle state computation unit (212) for calculating, on the basis of the acceleration information, a predetermined state quantity of a predetermined imaginary vehicle expected when the imaginary vehicle travels in an equivalent manner relative to that of the measurement vehicle.
