Influences of cushion contour on passenger comfort and interface pressure in high-speed train.

In this paper, eight different contoured cushions (S1-S8) in two categories (flat and wrapped) were designed to study the influence of different contoured cushions on passenger comfort in high-speed trains. Meanwhile, subjective data investigation by the comfort Likert Scale questionnaire and objective physical variables collection by the body-cushion contact pressure test was carried out. In addition, one-way ANOVA and Pearson correlation analysis were performed on the subjective survey and objective test data.

Shallow stability and parameter sensitivity analysis of soil slope with frame protection under rainfall seepage.

Frame protection is a commonly used solution to maintain the shallow stability of soil slope under rainfall seepage. Currently, the frame structure's design is empirical, and its theoretical analysis method considering the influence of seepage is scarce. Based on the instability model of the infinite slope, the shallow stability calculation model of soil slope under the rectangular frame protection is established in this paper.
