Reliability Test of Taxis Based on Typical User Road

Article Preview

Abstract:

In order to study the fatigue reliability of taxis, a test method that correlated typical user road with proving ground reliability road is proposed. According to the result of investigation, after taking the road test on the user road, the load spectrum of taxis on the condition of typical user road is obtained. Then the rain flow counting method is used to obtain the load distribution matrixes through analyzing the two groups of data that are tested above , and with pseudo damage as a quantitative basis for the calculation of taxis fatigue damage that generated from load spectrum, an equivalent relationship is established between the two. The calculation results indicate that the ratio of damage of the typical user road to proving ground reliability road is 1 to 148.8, if regarding 600,000 km as total scrapped mileage of a taxi, 4,000 km reliability test on proving ground can achieve the same damage.
