1、SURFACE VEHICLE RECOMMENDED PRACTICE J2834 OCT2013 Issued 2013-10 Ride Index Structure and Development Methodology RATIONALE This recommended practice indicates the current state of technology regarding the relationship between the human to vehicle interface vibration magnitude and human discomfort.
2、 The appendix is concerned with providing a uniform and convenient method of indicating the subjective severity of the motion and vibration but does not present limits. It is in no way related to quantifying health and safety aspects of motion and vibration for which an entirely different methodolog
3、y would be needed. This methodology is intended to predict human sensitivity to motion and vibration for comparative purposes (i.e., condition A versus condition B) relative to a global (i.e., absolute) adjectival psychometric scale. See Appendix C for additional supporting rationale. FOREWORD This
4、new recommended practice was prepared by the SAE J6 Task Force as partial replacement for the SAE J6a “Ride and Vibration Data Manual”. This new recommended practice represents a substantial updating and expansion of state-of-the-art in ride development methods used compared to the J6a Ride Vibratio
5、n Data Manual which it partially replaces. The J6a Ride Vibration Data Manual was last revised by the SAE Vehicle Dynamics Committee in October 1965. It is no longer published by the SAE but is included in Appendix B of Gillespie (1992). INTRODUCTION This recommended practice is a method for develop
6、ing an objective model of human sensitivity to vibration due to road induced disturbances in the automotive driving environment (a.k.a., “ride”). This method is based on statistical analysis of a database of juried vehicle occupant discomfort ratings and measured acceleration at the various human to
7、 vehicle contact surfaces during representative over-the-road driving events with stationary or transient characteristics within the finite time period of interest. The database for this analysis should cover an array of roads, vehicles, raters and driving conditions that well represent the applicat
8、ion domain of interest. The recommended discomfort model is hierarchal in order to provide for allocation of performance objectives to various subsystems, ride diagnosis, and to reduce the statistical uncertainty of fitting a single stage model. The top level of the model expresses overall motion an
9、d discomfort as the weighted sum of several “interface” discomfort ratings. Each interface discomfort rating (e.g., seat back, steering wheel) is the weighted sum of the discomfort ratings for the various axes of vibration at that interface (typically vertical, lateral and longitudinal). The axis di
10、scomfort ratings are based on frequency weighted acceleration signals. The frequency response filters are primarily taken from ISO 2631-1. ISO 2631-1 is a very comprehensive and widely accepted standard for describing human sensitivity to vibration, but not specifically for the automotive driving en
11、vironment. It is as relevant for vibrations in a building environment as it is in the automotive driving environment. It is based on human subjects seated on a rigid flat seat and subjected to a single axis of vibration at a time without the distractions and ancillary sensations of driving. This rep
12、ort describes a method for developing a human sensitivity model based on data taken in an actual ride environment. _ SAE Technical Standards Board Rules provide that: “This report is published by SAE to advance the state of technical and engineering sciences.

SCOPE This recommended pr
21、actice defines methods for the measurement of periodic, random and transient whole-body vibration. It indicates the principal factors that combine to determine the degree to which a vibration exposure will cause discomfort. Informative appendices indicate the current state of knowledge and provide g
22、uidance on the possible effects of motion and vibration on discomfort. The frequency range considered is 0.5 Hz to 80 Hz. This recommended practice also defines the principles of preferred methods of mounting transducers for determining human exposure. This recommended practice is applicable to ligh
23、t passenger vehicles (e.g., passenger cars and light trucks). This recommended practice is applicable to motions transmitted to the human body as a whole through the buttocks, back and feet of a seated occupant, as well as through the hands of a driver. This recommended practice offers a method for
24、developing a ride performance index but does not specifically describe how to apply this index to assessment or comparison of specific vehicles. NOTE: This recommended practice may also be applicable to other types of ground vehicles (e.g., medium and heavy duty road vehicles) with seated occupants
25、having similar seating posture, occupant/vehicle interfaces, and vibration magnitudes, frequencies, and durations as light passenger vehicles. SAE INTERNATIONAL J2834 Issued OCT2013 Page 3 of 32 1.1 Purpose The primary purpose of this recommended practice is to define methods of quantifying human se
26、nsitivity to occupant motion and vibration in passenger cars and light trucks based on objective measurements of acceleration and sound in order to simplify and standardize the reporting, comparison and assessment of motion and vibration conditions. It contains methods for the evaluation of vibratio
27、n containing occasional large peak values (i.e., having large crest factors). Human sensitivity is quantified in terms of predicted subjective discomfort levels, based on suitable psychometric and statistical methodologies. Passenger cars and light trucks and vans expose occupants to periodic, rando
28、m and transient mechanical vibration which can cause various levels of subjective discomfort. This recommended practice does not contain vibration exposure limits and does not address potential effects of motion and vibration on health and safety, or on motion sickness, which involve different pheno
29、mena. This recommended practice does not address the potential effects of intense vibration on human task performance since these involve different phenomena which depend critically on the biomechanical and ergonomic details related to the operator, the situation and the task. Appendix C provides ra
30、tionale for the assessment of human discomfort due to motion and vibration. More information may be obtained from the scientific literature, a portion of which is listed in 2.2.1 and Appendix B. Motion and vibration is often complex, contains many frequencies, occurs in several directions and change
31、s over time. The effects of motion and vibration on human discomfort may be manifold. Exposure to whole-body vibration causes a complex distribution of oscillatory motions and forces within the body. There can be large variations between subjects with respect to discomfort effects. Whole-body motion
32、 may cause sensations (e.g., discomfort or annoyance). The presence of oscillatory force (i.e., vibration) with little whole-body motion may cause similar effects. 2.
