Expanded Uncertainty in Measurements of Vertical and Lateral Behaviors for the Rubber-Tired Light Rail Vehicle

Abstract:

In the public transport vehicle, vertical and lateral behaviors have a significant effect on ride comfort and safety of passengers on curved track. Based on vertical and lateral vibration accelerations measured on floor level in passenger compartment when the K-AGT ran on the minimum curvature of the 2.4km-test track in driverless mode, expanded uncertainties in measurement were estimated statistically. In addition, vertical and lateral dynamic behaviors of the K-AGT were discussed in this paper.
