Hi,

It will be worst when the wheel is at the edge of the platform while getting onto it. This will give an impact effect.

Shouldn't vehicle be a bit even slower to minimize this effect.

As Steve calculated the stay time is around 150mSec. So why not divide this time into smooth and rough zones, Say:

First 50 mSec. Rough (Don't read the load)
Middle 50 mSec. Smooth ( Read the load)
Last 50 mSec. Rough (Don't read the load)

Somebody should speak on platform design as well.
