- W640137166 abstract "The aim of this project was to explore functional requirements to be used in the design of vehicles to make them optimal for taxi and special transport service. The project focused upon a vehicle of the type of minivan. The work included experimental studies using a mock-up vehicle where critical design factors could be varied. A common feature of ordinary passenger cars as well as specially equipped minibuses is that none of them are designed for transportation of disabled and elderly passengers. 22 elderly people and people with mobility difficulties tested the mock-up vehicle. Each person sat down in and exited the mock-up vehicle a number of times, the configuration being systematically changed each time. The subjects were interviewed each time and the movements and handling sequences were video-recorded during the tests. Analyses of function and time requirement as well as the cause of any problems experienced by the test group were made. It was found that individuals displayed different manners of entering, sitting down, rising and exiting the mock-up vehicle, or entering the vehicle when seated in a wheel-chair. The different variables in the mock-up vehicle influenced the individuals in different ways during the different phases of entering and exiting or manoeuvring a wheel-chair. Using the results of the experimental studies as a basis, functional and measurement requirements regarding important components of the doorway and the passenger area were determined. These included: (1) width of the doorway; (2) height of the doorway; (3) floor height; (4) height of the seat; (5) passenger area within the vehicle; and (6) ramp. These functional requirements can be used by vehicle manufacturers in their development of taxi and special transport vehicles as well as by taxi and special transport service operators as a basis for vehicle procurement. They can also be used by procurers of special transport services for specifying the requirements to be placed on the vehicles used in their operations.(A)" @default.
