Influence of Water Film Thickness on the British Pendulum Number for Tined Concrete Pavements
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Wet pavement friction decreases due to the increase in water film thickness (WFT), leading to a significant increase in vehicle crash occurrences. The British Pendulum Test is one of the methods used to measure pavement ...
Prediction of the Water Film Thickness for Tining Concrete Pavement
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Predicting water film thickness (WFT) is essential due to its significant impact on road safety, as reduced skid resistance caused by hydroplaning is strongly associated with increased vehicle crash rates. Tining is a ...
Mechanistic Design Framework for Evaluating the Potential for Concrete Pavement Growth and Blowup
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Pavement growth (PG) refers to the expansion of the integrated slab length when all the contraction joints of the concrete pavement are close within the expansion joint (EJ). It results from the complex interactions of ...
Effects of Pavement Texture Characteristics on Tire–Pavement Noise from Dense-Graded Asphalt Concrete Pavement
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Traffic noise causes discomfort to road users and residents near highways. Tire–pavement noise comprises major part of traffic noise caused by high-speed vehicles. Tire–pavement noise comes from tire vibration and air ...
