Low-floor bus design preferences of walking aid users during simulated boarding and alighting.
Low-floor buses represent a significant improvement in accessible public transit for passengers with limited mobility. However, there is still a need for research on the inclusive design of transit buses to identify specific low-floor bus design conditions that are either particularly accommodating or challenging for passengers with functional and mobility impairments. These include doorway loc...
متن کاملInferring Passenger Boarding and Alighting Preference for the Marguerite Shuttle Bus System
We analyze passenger count data from the Marguerite Shuttle system operating on the Stanford University campus. The aim is to infer the time-varying passenger alighting and boarding preference across stops for several important shuttle routes. We look at the problem from the perspective of filling in the missing entries of a transit route O-D matrix. A preliminary analysis indicates that there ...
متن کاملModeling and simulation of passenger alighting and boarding movement in Beijing metro stations
This paper presents a cellular automata-based alighting and boarding micro-simulation model for passengers in Beijing metro stations. According to observations of passenger alighting and boarding behavior and an analysis of field data collected in three metro stations in Beijing, components of alighting and boarding time and the effects of different group sizes on the alighting and boarding per...

متن کاملDesign of an Active Walking-aid for Elderly People
This paper describes the preliminary design of a light, high stability, robotic system for elderly assistance. The mechanisms used for such assisting devices must exhibit complex mechanical functions that may change during the use. The design has also to be adapted to the morphology and/or pathology. Taking these constraints into account, the design of a robotic walker is presented which provid...
