Abstract
Passenger comfort is one of the main concerns in the acceptance of a new passenger transportation system (PTS). Especially in vertical transportation systems, classically realized by cable elevators, the highest possible ride quality is expected by the market. In the rope-free PTS the rope of the standard elevator is replaced by a linear motor, which directly provides the driving force. The new propulsion and in particular the possibility of horizontal movement inside the shaft, demands a new design of the vehicle. This paper will present a model of the PTS with the focus on passenger comfort and therefore on the aspect of active vibration damping. The presented model also includes an actuator model of the damping components, which form with a closed kinematic chain together with the PTS. Measurements on the real MULTI test system of the novel PTS, which is installed in the test tower in Rottweil, Germany, are used to identify the model parameters.
