Popis: Locomotive transportation is one of the important sectors in the field of transportation. Hence, passengers’ experience plays a vital role in the improvement of the public transportation. The present research article addresses the vibrational issues that occur due to lack of damping in the public transportation. The study focuses on reducing vibrations in locomotive transportation systems by the use of Anti-vibrational pad (AVP). Various results obtained from the experimentations involving modal analysis, random vibration analysis, harmonic response analysis, and fatigue analysis are validated using Ansys workbench. The study also compares the obtained experimental data with the existing approach. The study resulted in a positive outcome, with the possibility of being able to build a practical and more stable damping set-up in public transportation, which in-turn can improve the passengers’ experience.
