摘要: The Federal Railroad Administration has been conducting research to develop strategies for improved passenger protection in train accidents. Crash energy management (CEM) has been developed as a strategy for structural crashworthiness. Interior strategies that have been developed to work in concert with CEM include improved workstation tables and optimized commuter seats. The purpose of this research is to develop the technical information required for passenger equipment specifications, standards, and regulations. Research results are being applied by METROLINK commuter railroad in their current efforts to procure new equipment. The American Public Transportation Association is planning to develop industry standards from these research results. / Supplementary Notes: Sponsored by Federal Railroad Administration, Washington, DC.
