Analysis of assessment criteria for selected systems of transport means operation

Abstract

Abstract. The problems discussed in the study are connected with evaluation of complex technical systems functioning, in particular, transport systems. It was assumed that evaluation of their functioning depends on fulfilment degree of selected criteria. Therefore, it is important to determine a set of criteria including their type, number and importance. Since the research object is a public city transport system considered to be a sociotechnical system of the type: human (driver) -machine (vehicle) and the environment <H-M-E>, the criteria to be used for the assessment must include behavior of humans, operation of transport means, and the environmental impact. Thus, selection and determination of importance of significant, time variable, measurable and independent characteristics whose values, in a given time moment or a given time interval, define fulfillment degree of the criteria provide the basis for evaluation of such systems functioning. The quality of technical systems functioning in time is assessed on the basis of the criteria fulfilment degree or comparison and classification of different systems of the same type. It needs to be emphasized that the choice of optimal methods for selection of relevant criteria and determination of their impact on the analyzed system functioning is the research subject of study.

Impact of the epidemiological situation in Poland in 2020 on the public transport system

“…One of the basic functions of computer programs supporting maintenance services is the registration of data on individual vehicle states. After implementing such systems, it is possible to automatically generate periodic reports containing various damage indicators, including indicators defined by software users [10][11][12][13].…”

Structural analysis of territorial transport systems based on classification methods

“…The proposed method is based on the use of the Fourier transform to obtain an analytical solution to the problems in question. The problems discussed in [11] are related to the assessment of the functioning of complex technical systems, in particular, transport systems. It was assumed that the assessment of their functioning depends on the degree of meeting the chosen criteria.…”

Method of modelling operation and maintenance processes in public transport systems using a certain class of stochastic processes

“…Operation efficiency of city transport systems and operated by them transport means can be analyzed in terms of economy and technology [1,[7][8][9].…”

“…When analyzing operating costs of such systems it is necessary to take into consideration different cost categories including the costs involved in operation of subsystems whose task is to provide transport means with usability and those which deal with maintenance of the vehicles to keep them ready for use [2,[7][8]. Bus transport system operations involve many different costs including those involved in application of lubrication oils.…”
