Accession Number: 00373386
Record Type: Component
Availability: Find a library where document is available Abstract: Ride quality criteria and characteristics are reviewed for advanced ground transportation systems, including automated guideway transit systems, downtown people movers, and tracked, levitated magnetic and air suspended vehicle systems. Data available for these advanced systems are described and the use of computer analyses and multiaxis ride simulators is discussed to predict system ride characteristics at the design stage. Recommendations are formulated for specification of ride quality requirements in advanced ground transportation systems.
