BS ISO 37158:2019,Smart community infrastructures — Smart transportation using battery-powered buses for passenger services.BS ISO 37158:2019 pdf free download.
BS ISO 37158:2019 specifies a procedure for the introduction of smart transportation to city centres by means of battery-powered buses. This service contributes to a clean atmosphere and a relatively quiet environment while offering services that provide safe and comfortable rides for citizens.
City centres, often small areas, are frequently congested with internal-combustion-engine-driven ehicles. This creates significant city issues, including air pollution from greenhouse gases (GHGs) and irritation to citizens from noise and vibration. The number of internal-combustion-engine-driven private vehicles nowadays is small. Heavy trucks, which are commonly driven by internal combustion engines, are not allowed in city centres. Thus, the main source of such air pollution and environmental itation is now commercial vehicles, i.e. buses equipped with internal combustion engines (see Annex-A).Fuel energy is more efficiently converted to driving forces by motors consuming electric ower generated from fuel than by engines directly burning fuel. Therefore, motor-driven or battery-powered buses are suitable options for transportation vehicles.
Bus transportation systems offer convenient and casual transport for citizens in all cities as they can operate in narrow streets in accordance with passenger flow changes in a city and require minimum facilities for bus stops. However, although bus journeys are popular among citizens, the ride comfort is not always of a high quality due to sudden stops to avoid collisions or traffic accidents, and irritating jerky movements caused by the traction mechanism in the internal combustion engine driving systems.
Such behaviour can give passengers motion sickness or discomfort or even lead to injuries.
At the same time as promoting modal shifts from conventional to alternative systems, service
performance and quality should be maintained or improved, in particular regarding low environmental, impact,safe and steady operation and passenger ride comfort.
