Abstract:Ride-quality models for city buses and intercity trains are presented
and discussed in terms of their ability to predict passenger
comfort and ride acceptability.
This, the second of three volumes, contains a technical discussion,
of the ride-quality models developed during the research effort using
the data gathered on city buses and intercity trains. The methods and
procedures employed to derive the models are also presented, together
with examples of how models are used to evaluate the ride quality of
existing and future transportation systems. The raw data used as a
basis for the models are presented in the appendixes to this volume.
Volume I is a summary, and Volume III contains procedural guidelines
to be employed by transportation specialists in developing ridequality
models and in using them to evaluate passenger comfort in
existing or future systems.
