This work presents an experiment on the relationships between subjective and objective evaluations of vehicle handling. Ten
cars were examined objectively in several open-loop driving dynamics manoeuvres and subjectively by test persons in typical
traffic situations. Results are extracted from a stationary test (the Slowly Increasing Steer Test), and a dynamical test
(the Frequency Response Test). The subjective measurements are obtained from drivers on a rural road course via a questionnaire,
which was developed to separately investigate the quantity level perception, the so-called “Niveau”, and the more qualitative
“Liking”. These subjective “measurements” are embedded into a two-channel definition of “Steering Comfort” as a genus for
“Steering Discomfort” and “Character”. The article concentrates on developing a statistical method for the consideration of
correlations amongst the subjective/objective data. In doing so, the variance in example subjective Niveau ratings can be
significantly explained by several objective quantities. Indicators for co-domains of validated discomfort characteristics
and hints for endeavouring character Liking ranges are detected. 相似文献

In recent years, management and academics have increasingly focused on quality management in public transport. In particular, many public transport operators regularly monitor their service quality over time and use these data to assess quality performance (e.g., for performance-based quality contracts) and to determine managerial decisions (e.g., budget allocations for service improvements). However, despite the widespread applications of service quality data in practice, it is unclear whether cross-sectional analyses and cross-temporal comparisons of service quality data provide valid insights for quality management purposes. In this study, we investigate the usability of cross-sectional analyses and cross-temporal comparisons of service quality data by conducting an empirical study that tracked a panel’s perceptions of the service quality of public transport and its choice over the course of three consecutive years. The results demonstrate that cross-sectional analyses provide valid insights for quality management. However, cross-temporal comparisons should be interpreted carefully because the results of these comparisons are surprisingly unreliable. In fact, we find that service quality data do not provide reliable results over time and therefore conclude that cross-temporal comparisons of service quality data must be interpreted with caution for quality management in public transport. 相似文献

The variation of the rail support stiffness is an inherent issue of railway tracks. There is still no consensus on the influence of the rail support stiffness variation on the dynamic response of the vehicle–track system. One view indicates that changes of the support stiffness do not have considerable influence on the vehicle dynamic response. The main influence factor is the rail deflection. However, the opposite view presents that the influence of the support stiffness on the system dynamic response is obvious. Reasons that lead to the dispute of previous studies are the neglect of the influence of the excitation frequencies and a lack of understanding of stiffness sensitive zones. In this study a vehicle–track coupling model with equivalent overall support stiffness is employed to investigate the response of the vehicle to changes of the track stiffness and excitation frequencies. Results show that for each of frequencies (1–40?Hz) the dynamic response of the vehicle is only sensitive to a certain range of the support stiffness. A stiffness sensitive zone for each excitation frequency can be observed. In order to further study the influence of the subgrade on the vehicle system dynamic response a vehicle–track-subgrade model is utilised. The subgrade stiffness belonging to the stiffness sensitive zone has a significant influence on vehicle vibrations. For overall support stiffness of the rail higher than 20?kN/mm, the stiffness sensitive zones of low excitation frequencies can be avoided. 相似文献
