Objective Ride Comfort Measurement

Volume 3: 19th International Conference on Design Theory and Methodology; 1st International Conference on Micro- and Nanosystems; and 9th International Conference on Advanced Vehicle Tire Technologies, Parts A and B, 2007
The paper presents an innovative dummy conceived to provide an effective tool for an objective vehicle ride comfort evaluation. The first part of the research includes experimental tests on instrumented seats for evaluating the vertical (cushion) and longitudinal (backrest) acceleration between the vehicle seat and the seated human subject.

Evaluation of Ride Comfort of Passenger Craft

2006 IEEE International Conference on Systems, Man and Cybernetics, 2006
The purpose of this study is to establish a method for evaluating ride quality of passenger ships. The authors have conducted an experiment on board a car ferry running across the Tsugaru-Straits in North Japan. Ship motion was measured at the navigation bridge, and a questionnaire survey was also carried out so as to obtain passengers' subjective ...

AUTOMOBILE RIDING-COMFORT

SAE Technical Paper Series, 1924
<div class="htmlview paragraph">Riding-comfort is defined as the transportation of an automobile passenger in so easy a manner that the trip will be a pleasure and not a hardship. Since spring-suspension constitutes the basis of riding comfort in passenger-cars, the paper deals with some of the important factors that determine correct chassis ...

Truck Riding Comfort

Journal of Fluids Engineering, 1949
Abstract The author feels that in creating luxurious passenger cars, economical limits have been exceeded by introducing costly, complicated, and over-engineered appurtenances. The same criticism applies to truck design. Excessive weight and complications militate against long life of truck and track, and maintenance costs are high.

Ride Comfort and NVH

2011
Ride comfort is defined as the overall comfort and well-being of the vehicle’s occupants during vehicle travel. The main sources of discomfort are oscillations which reach the vehicle’s passenger compartment and cause noise, vibration, or both. Since the sources of these oscillations (the roadway, chassis, and powertrain) are outside of the passenger ...

Ridemeter – Calculated Ride Comfort

SAE Technical Paper Series, 2007
<div class="htmlview paragraph">The ridemeter is a development tool that provides a predictive value for subjectively perceived ride quality on the basis of objective measured values. After years of preliminary investigations it was possible to make the link between the subjective driving experience and objective measured data.
