A practical design approach for reducing the occurrence of shallow slides in cohesionless till highway embankments
Shallow slides in cohesionless till occurred in several highway fills in the province of Quebec, Canada, following spring thaw and sometimes during rainy autumns. This study has shown that the strength parameters of cohesionless tills can be related to the liquid limit for both drained and undrained conditions. These relationships can be used as input in stability analyses to readily yield desi...
متن کاملSubcritical equilibria in Taylor-Couette flow.
Nonlinear equilibrium states characterized by strongly localized vortex pairs are calculated in the linearly stable parameter region of counterrotating Taylor-Couette flow. These subcritical states are rotating waves whose region of existence is consistent with the critical threshold for relaminarization observed in experiments. For sufficiently rapid outer cylinder rotation the solutions exten...
متن کاملTurbulent Flow over Cars
In this paper the flow behaviour over a number of car bodies is studied. For this purpose the unsteady 2-D incompressible Navier-Stokes equations have been applied. After averaging and nondimensionalizing the equations, the system of equations has been transformed from the Cartesian (x-y) coordinates to a body fitted generalized (-) coordinate. As the flow is incompressible, the density in the ...
متن کاملSubcritical Pattern Formation in Granular Flow
We study a minimal model for the flow of granular material on a conveyor belt consisting of a staircase-like array of K vertically vibrated compartments. Applying a steady inflow rate Q to the top compartment, we determine the maximum value Qcr(K) for which a continuous flow through the system is possible. BeyondQcr(K), which depends on the vibration strength and the dimensions of the system, a...
متن کاملCapacity Analysis of Traffic Flow Over a Single-Lane Automated Highway System
We calculate bounds on per-lane Automated Highway System (AHS) capacity as a function of vehicle capabilities and control system information structure. We assume that the AHS lane is dedicated for use by fully automated vehicles. Capacity is constrained by the minimum inter-vehicle separation necessary for safe operation. A methodology for deriving the safe minimum inter-vehicle separation for ...
