This document has been prepared under a mandate given to CEN by the European Commission and the European Free Trade Association. PD CEN/TR 16823:2015CEN/TR 16823:2015 (E) 4 Introduction This docum
12、ent has been used as a basis for deriving the requirements related to anthropometric data used in the EN 16186 series 5. The following principles have been applied for the purposes of this document: Principle 1: Every identified trend has the same direction in all member states. The direction of a t
13、rend could be upwards or downwards. An example for an upward trend would be changes in body height. Principle 2: All trends take place at the same time in all member states. Principle 3: The impact of every trend is different. Impacts can be treated like a vector. Principle 4: Using the average of b
14、ody height of the European population does not create the height of the average European driver. 1 Scope This Technical Report describes the background on the anthropometric data provided by EN 16186-1 1. 2 Terms and definitions For the purposes of this document, the following terms and definitions
15、apply. 2.1 driver person tasked with operating a vehicle or a train by operating controls in a drivers cab or on a remote control unit 2.2 drivers cab compartment of a vehicle which is equipped with controls and instruments with which the driver controls traction units in the train 3 Background on a
16、nthropometric data 3.1 Sources for current anthropometric data European database: PeopleSize Database 2; EN ISO 15537 3; recent representative European customer specifications; UIC 651 4. NOTE It has been proven that anthropometric data provided by UIC 651 are more representative for northern than f
17、or southern European populations. PD CEN/TR 16823:2015CEN/TR 16823:2015 (E) 5 3.2 Preconditions and principles applied The analysis of the sources mentioned in 3.1 has shown that a number of common parameters exist. The following preconditions apply: a) if a trend is discovered, it is deemed to appl
18、y for all European member states in tendency and timing; b) trends pointing in different directions are combined and substituted by a resulting common trend; c) the average body height of the weighted European population is not sufficient for determining a future range of driver sizes for Europe; d)
19、 missing data about eastern European drivers are substituted by the average between northern and southern populations; e) a very common approach for body height (automobile, aviation, clothing industry) takes into consideration: 1) the 5 % percentile European female, and 2) the 95 % percentile Europ

Key X population percentile Y body height, in mm indicative, age range 18 to 25 (male) Figure 1 Impact of the percentile on the body height 3.3 Trend detected and consequences Body height is shown to be generally higher in northern Europe compared to southern Eur
21、ope (Figure 2). NOTE 1 Due to human nutrition and medical research there is an assumed trend of increasing body height by approximately 1 mm p.a. This trend is now assumed to have slowed down or even stopped. NOTE 2 To account for future changes of body sizes, the average size of people aged 18 year
22、s to 39 years is considered to be more representative than that of people aged 18 years to 64 years (Figure 3).
