Abstract
Acceleration behaviour of vehicles is important for various applications. The delay caused while leaving the signalized intersection, depends on acceleration capability of a vehicle, among others factors. Acceleration of motorized three wheelers merits attention since though they accommodate passengers similar to car; they accelerate differently as compared to car. Therefore, objective of this study is to understand the acceleration behaviour of Motorized Three Wheelers. It is observed in this study that acceleration rates of Motorized Three Wheeler differ from reported acceleration rates in literature. The maximum acceleration rate, speed at maximum acceleration and distance travelled during acceleration maneuver are found to be sensitive to maximum speed achieved during acceleration maneuver. On finding existing acceleration models to be insufficient to explain the acceleration behaviour of Motorized Three Wheelers, new models are proposed and validated.
