Recent research has developed experimentally verified dynamic models for skid-steered wheeled vehicles and used these results to derive a power model for this important class of all-terrain vehicles. As presented in this paper, based on the torque limitations of the vehicle motors, the dynamic model can be used to develop payload and terrain-dependent minimum turn radius constraints and the pow...

The assessment of the anti-skid properties airfield pavements is one elements in process determining their current technical condition, which important terms safety air operations. condition pavement should be qualified on basis specified and required values (criteria), this case, coefficient friction depth texture. Unfortunately, practice, texture new raises some doubts with regard to existing...

Over the last forty years, safety on Australian roads has significantly improved in part because of the adoption of aviation safety technologies. The best known of these adaptations are: safety belts; anti-skid braking; dashboard/control layout improvement and the use of computers to aid stability and performance. The improvement in safety on the road as reflected by reductions in road trauma h...

There are high mountains and steep roads in Guizhou Province. Affected by the relatively closed environment, humidity other factors, skid resistance durability of highway tunnels were obviously reduced, which affects normal operation asphalt pavement. Based on pavement maintenance project Yilaga Tunnel Province, a new kind epoxy surface treatment technology for has been introduced this paper. T...

Each year, more than 25 percent of highway fatalities in the United States occur at or near horizontal curves, according to the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA). In an attempt to save lives and prevent injuries, some 30 states across the U.S. are applying high friction surfaces (HFS) to improve skid resistance at locations with a high incident of vehicle crashes such as severe horizontal c...
