Research on Train Riding Comfort Based on AHP-entropy Method
Traveling by train is an indispensable way for people to travel,and its ride comfortable-ness varies greatly depending on people's feelings.In order to scientifically and reasonably evaluate the overall riding comfort of the train,qualitative issues in the factors affecting the riding comfort of the train were combined with statistical theory to carry out a comprehensive quantitative evaluation and analysis.This paper started from three scenes of the waiting room,the platform and the carriages,and combined with the factor analysis method to construct an evaluation index system for the overall riding comfort of the train.Based on the results of the questionnaire survey,the AHP-entropy method was used to calculate and analyze the comprehensive weights of each index,solving the problem of bias of the calculation caused by a single method of weighting.The analysis results show that facilities,noise and space are the significant factors affecting the comfort level of train waiting rooms and platforms,and temperature and humidity are the important factors affecting the comfort level of train compartments.Based on the results of the model analysis,improvement directions are indicated and optimization sug-gestions are proposed for different scenarios.
