Abstract: | To meet increased capacity demands of passengers in the rail industry, a robotic and autonomous system that services the fluids on passenger rail vehicles was proposed. A hierarchical task analysis of fluid servicing processes was conducted and human and system errors were highlighted. This information, along with opinions of technical managers and staff were inputted into a quality function deployment matrix to make a design specification; from this specification two concepts were proposed. Both concepts are viable but modification to rail vehicles is required. A proof of concept will next be developed to begin a path to a commercial product. |
