Mean Linear Velocity Calculator

Formula

The formula to calculate the Mean Linear Velocity is:

\[ v = \frac{v_1 + v_2}{2} \]

Where:

\(v\) is the Mean Linear Velocity (m/s)
\(v_1\) is the Maximum Linear Velocity during Cycle (m/s)
\(v_2\) is the Minimum Linear Velocity during Cycle (m/s)

Definition

Mean Linear Velocity is an average of individual vehicle linear speeds.

Example Calculation

Let's assume the following values:

Maximum Linear Velocity during Cycle (\(v_1\)) = 28 m/s
Minimum Linear Velocity during Cycle (\(v_2\)) = 12 m/s

Using the formula:

\[ v = \frac{28 + 12}{2} \]

Evaluating:

\[ v = 20 \text{ m/s} \]

The Mean Linear Velocity is 20 m/s.
