Abstract:
The testing and evaluation of the retroreflective materials are the basic work of the road traffic engineering quality. In this paper, artificial neural networks are used to make the study on the photometric performance attenuation law of retroreflection materials. Through the establishment of photometric prediction models to forecast reflection coefficient of the different types of retroreflective sheeting, compared with the testing values, the results showed that photometric performance attenuation law can predict the coefficient of retroreflection of retroreflective sheeting.

The coefficient of retroreflection is considered as the most important parameter of retroreflective material, the value of which is tested by photopic detector now. In fact this material were usually used under mesopic vision condition, and through the test of retroreflective spectra, the mesopic spectral luminous efficiency Vmes(λ) and equivalent brightness were calculated. The result show that at different brightness the retroreflective light present unlike spectrum distribution, and white, blue material with higher retroreflection value under mesopic vision, red material own lower value, th

As the wide application of retroreflective materials, following problems such as safety warning effect, quality, manufacturing technology, test method become more and more important. Many national test centers or big manufactures build retroreflection measurement systems. In order to identify these laboratories’ ability, we organize this laboratory comparison. After 6 months experiments, this comparison successfully finishes. And all the test data are dealt with statistical analysis.

To increase their level of conspicuity, emergency response personnel wear Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) with retroreflective materials. That is, retroreflective materials increase the probability that oncoming motorists will see them.

Abstract:
Typical road users appear not to understand retroreflectivity despite nightly exposure to retroreflective materials like road signs. A critical benefit of retroreflective materials is a robustness to changes in entrance angle, the angle at which light strikes the material. This study aims to measure observers’ perceived brightness judgments of surfaces representing three types of reflection (diffuse, specular, and retroreflective) when viewed under manipulations of entrance angle. Perceived brightness will be assessed before and during a demonstration including illumination from a source posit

Abstract:
As the field service life of retroreflective raised pavement marker (RRPM) is much shorter than expected, it is necessary to identify the causes and thus improve the RRPM structural design to mitigate the main failure modes, such as poor retention from pavements, structural damage, and loss of retroreflectivity. One strategy for extending RRPM service life is to enhance RRPM geometric characteristics to decrease critical stresses in markers. The main purpose of this thesis is to analyze the relationship between stresses, failure modes, and RRPM profiles. Based on this research, some measures a

Furthermore, a large majority of these accidents take place at night in rural areas. One proposed solution to prevent such accidents involves mounting retroreflective material on the sides of trains so that a vehicle's headlights will illuminate the reflectors and make the train more conspicuous.

Abstract:
Retroreflective Raised Pavement Markers (RRPMs) supplement other pavement markings to provide guidance to road users. Previous research concerning durability of the RRPMs suggests that their performance has been degrading over the years. One of the main causes for underperformance of the RRPMs is the lack of appropriate laboratory testing standards that can test the adequacy of the RRPMs to perform in field conditions. There is a need to modify the existing standards or develop new testing procedures that can better simulate field conditions. This requires identifying critical locations and ma

An array of lighting and marking schemes were implemented on police vehicles in a variety of jurisdictions for evaluation. The study then investigated the change in the visibility of police officers, the public reaction to these schemes, and the operational impacts of these systems.
