Railway applications - Ride comfort for passengers - Measurement and evaluation

The purpose of this document is to provide methods for quantifying the ride comfort of a passenger in a rail vehicle in response to the track sections it is operated over.
The methods aim to quantify the effects of vehicle body motions on ride comfort and to make the assessment of passenger comfort predictable, repeatable, objective and meaningful.
The methods and comfort scales are validated for people of good health.
This document applies to passengers in rail vehicles operating on heavy rail networks.
This document applies to measurements of motions. It also applies to simulated motions. Guidance is provided on:
-   which method described within the document should be used for different scenarios;
-   typical values for different comfort levels;
-   the application of simulation.
This document excludes health and safety issues, non-passenger carrying vehicles, vehicle homologation and safety, limit values, motion sickness, discomfort caused by accelerating and braking, design guidelines and measurement technology.

Bahnanwendungen - Fahrkomfort für Fahrgäste - Messung und Auswertung

Der Zweck dieses Dokuments ist es, Verfahren zur Quantifizierung des Fahrkomforts eines Fahrgastes in einem Schienenfahrzeug, in Abhängigkeit von den befahrenen Streckenabschnitten, auf denen dieses betrieben wird, bereitzustellen.
Ziel der Verfahren ist es, die Auswirkungen der Wagenkastenbewegungen auf den Fahrkomfort zu quantifizieren und die Beurteilung des Komforts für Fahrgäste vorhersehbar, wiederholbar, objektiv und aussagekräftig zu machen.
Die Verfahren und Komfortmaßstäbe gelten für Fahrgäste, die sich in einem gesundheitlich guten Allgemeinzustand befinden.
Dieses Dokument gilt für Fahrgäste in Schienenfahrzeugen, die auf Vollbahnnetzen betrieben werden.
Dieses Dokument gilt für Bewegungsmessungen. Es gilt auch für simulierte Bewegungen. Es werden Richtlinien in Bezug auf Folgendes vorgegeben:
-   dazu, welches der im Dokument beschriebenen Verfahren für verschiedene Szenarien angewendet werden sollte;
-   zu üblichen Werten für verschiedene Komfortniveaus;
-   zur Anwendung von Simulationen.
Dieses Dokument befasst sich nicht mit Gesundheits- und Sicherheitsthemen, Fahrzeugen ohne Fahrgäste, Fahrzeugzulassung und  sicherheit, Grenzwerten, Reisekrankheit, Unwohlsein durch Beschleunigung und Bremsung, Konstruktionsrichtlinien und Messtechnologien.

Applications ferroviaires - Confort de marche des voyageurs - Mesurage et évaluation

L'objet de ce document est de fournir des méthodes pour quantifier le confort de marche des voyageurs dans un véhicule ferroviaire en fonction des sections de voie sur lesquelles il est exploité.
Ces méthodes visent à quantifier les effets des mouvements de la caisse du véhicule sur le confort de marche et à rendre l'évaluation du confort des voyageurs prévisible, reproductible, objective et significative.
Les méthodes et les échelles de confort sont validées pour des personnes en bonne santé.
Le présent document s'applique aux passagers des véhicules ferroviaires circulant sur les réseaux ferroviaires lourds.
Le présent document s'applique aux mesures de mouvements. Il s'applique également aux mouvements simulés. Des recommandations sont fournies sur :
-   quelle méthode décrite dans le document il convient d'utiliser pour les différents scénarios ;
-   les valeurs types pour différents niveaux de confort ;
-   l'application de la simulation.
Le présent document exclut les questions de santé et de sécurité, les véhicules ne transportant pas de voyageurs, l'homologation et la sécurité des véhicules, les valeurs limites, le mal des transports, l'inconfort causé par l'accélération et le freinage, les directives de conception et la technologie de mesure.
