Handbook of Vehicle-Road Interaction :
Vehicle Dynamics, Suspension Design, and Road Damage
(Advances in Engineering (Lisse, Netherlands).)
David Cebon (Editor)Hardcover – 612 pages 1 edition Vol 2 (August 1999) This handbook discusses tyre-road contact forces generated by heavy vehicles: their influence on road surface and bridge response and damage; as well as ways of regulating and improving vehicles so as to minimise road damage. The main incentive for understanding vehicle-road interaction is the possibility of reducing the road damage caused by heavy vehicles and the very high associated costs. This may be achieved by highway authorities, through improved design and construction of roads; by government agencies, through regulations intended to encourage the use of more “road-friendly” vehicles; or by vehicle engineers, through design of improved vehicle configurations and suspensions, which minimise road damage.
The book provides a unified mechanistic approach to the entire subject, covering the main topics of: vehicle dynamics; dynamic tyre forces; weigh-in-motion; pavement and bridge response; damage mechanisms of paving materials; vehicle-guideway interaction; suspension design to minimise road damage; and assessing road-damaging potential of vehicles for regulatory purposes. It includes 25 literature reviews, covering topics from asphalt deformation to weigh-in-motion, and citing over 500 references. It discusses both the fundamental mechanics of the mechanical and civil engineering systems, as well as practical and implementation issues; and therefore provides both a first introduction to the subject and a comprehensive reference source.
This handbook is essential reading for mechanical and civil engineers, researchers and policy makers in the heavy vehicle and highway engineering industries.
Frank V. Hermann (Editor) / Paperback / Published 1997
This proceedings, Aircraft/Pavement Technology: In the Midst of Change, includes papers presented at the 1997 Airfield Pavement Conference in Seattle, Washington, August 17-20, 1997. This publication represents the many changes occurring in the field of pavement design and management. Therefore, it discusses both practical and theoretical issues related to airfield pavements. To this end, the papers cover such topics as: 1) layered elastic pavement; 2) pavement evaluation; 3) theoretical research; 4) materials research; 5) construction; and 6) pavement performance.
Paul Croney, David Croney / Hardcover / Published 1997
The purpose of the book is to provide a comprehensive guide to practising engineers concerned with the design of pavements throughout the world. It has value, too, as a textbook for students because of the comprehension it will give them of the nature of roadmaking materials and of the forces which act upon them in pavements. (from the preface)
provides a clear, concise user-friendly introduction to the most current civil engineering and highway construction materials — including soils, aggregates, asphalt mixtures, portland cement concrete, and other pavement materials.
Emphasizes proven, cost-effective methods for evaluating and managing pavements, but also describes some repair techniques. The topics include project and network level management, cost analysis and budget planning, measuring roughness and friction, and condition prediction.
This text provides a basic understanding of the principles of evaluating, planning and programming, designing, constructing, maintaining, and carrying out research on pavements. It also addresses the implementation of pavement management systems. Primarily for senior and graduate students, practicing engineers, and researchers.
Yang H. Huang / Hardcover / (2nd Edition) Published 2003
This text/software package explores the structural analysis and design of highway pavements — focusing on the mechanistic-empirical design procedures rather than the purely empirical methods.
Stone setts, flags and clay bricks, used as paving materials for centuries in many parts of the world are the focus of renewed interest with the advent of new manufacturing techniques and an appreciation of their load bearing capabilities and attractive appearance. The guidance presented here is for engineers and architects involved in design, specification and application of segmental paving.
