Enhancing pavement surface macrotexture characterization by using the effective area for water evacuation
(2016)
Adequate macrotexture characterization is an essential objective for transportation practitioners because primary pavement surface characteristics like friction, tire-pavement noise, splash and spray, and rolling resistance ...
Evaluation of variability of macrotexture measurement with different laser-based devices
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2015)
The comparison of macrotexture values estimated from different measuring techniques usually provides poor agreement and unsatisfactory confidence in the real macrotexture estimates by means of the Mean Texture Depth (MTD) ...
Estimation of skid resistance and macrotexture thresholds
(THOMAS TELFORD PUBLISHING, 2009)
One of the main challenges in geometrical design of highways is to de. ne the braking distance required by the driver-vehicle system. For a specific design speed, the braking distance mainly depends on the friction between ...
Enhancing pavement surface macrotexture characterization by using the effective area for water evacuation
(NATIONAL RESEARCH COUNCIL, 2018)
Avaliação do comportamento da retrorrefletividade em rodovia com micro revestimento asfáltico à frio
(Universidade Federal de Santa MariaBrasilEngenharia CivilUFSMPrograma de Pós-Graduação em Engenharia CivilCentro de Tecnologia, 2018-07-30)
More than one million people are killed annually around the world as a result of traffic accidents. In Brazil, this epidemic costs the public coffers 56 billion a year. More than half of the fatal accidents in Rio Grande ...
Seasonal variability of skid resistance in paved roadways
(ICE PUBLISHING, 2011)
Skid resistance is relevant for road safety. Past research studies have shown that in the long term, skid resistance oscillates around a trend value. Weather conditions, traffic, microtexture, macrotexture and polishing ...
Avaliação da macrotextura do pavimento asfáltico de um trecho de rodovia localizada no noroeste do estado do Paraná
(Universidade Tecnológica Federal do ParanáCampo MouraoBrasilDepartamento Acadêmico de Construção CivilEngenharia CivilUTFPR, 2017-02-10)
The surface drainage capacity of an asphalt pavement is of fundamental importance in a highway, it covers several aspects related to the comfort and safety of users, being the main ones: the effect of night mirror, the ...
