Abstract:
Skew superelevation has proven to be an efficient pavement constructional measure to address hydroplaning phenomena under specific critical superelevation runoff designs. However, this technique has raised concerns about user’s comfort when driving over the skewed edge of the pavement, especially for heavy vehicles and when the traveling speed is higher than the design speed. This paper aims to evaluate the driving comfort outcome on an improved skew superelevation design, where a rounding of the skew edge has been applied. This is achieved through the use of a simulation program which examine

Abstract:
Abstract Superelevation is known as a transverse slope made available to mitigate the impact of centrifugal force and minimize the vehicle’s tendency to overturn and skid. However, in an intersection or interchange that has horizontal curves with small radius consecutively, it is difficult to design superelevation. If the superelevation arrangement is not good enough, the alignment is not smooth, causing unfavourable and unsafe conditions. Moreover, for expressway interchange, it become more complicated to design by manual method because the expressway requirements in term of safety and aesthe

Abstract:
The purpose of this paper is to evaluate the differences between two design alternatives for the pavement edge along the superelevation runoff. The highway literature usually recommends to design the edge as a combination of straight lines, i.e., linear edge design and nonlinear change of superelevation. It is possible, however, to construct another method by which the superelevation increases linearly within the pavement along the runoff. This paper analyzes the two design alternatives and examines the differences between the two methods. It was shown that on a spiralled highway, a linear cha

Abstract:
Railway curves have influence on train speed on a curve and/or wheel/rail interface. Additional forces that have to be compensated appear in the curves. The purpose of superelevation is to compensate acceleration emerging in the curve thus assuring comfortable passenger transportation and equal wearing of both rails. However, it is very difficult to calculate superelevation when designing and maintaining a railway track, because the estimation of actual train speed on the curves is very complicated. As we know, railway lines can be divided into conventional, high speed and heavy haul ones. As

Abstract:
Hydroplaning and the corresponding hydroplaning speed of a vehicle are critical road safety concerns. To avoid hydroplaning, nine technical measures are available. One of the most effective is the construction of skew superelevation runoff at the critical pavement section of a highway, especially in highway rehabilitation and reconstruction projects. The concept was introduced in the German RAS-L design guide of 1984; its implementation is found mainly in central European countries. Skew superelevation runoff was adopted in recent freeway projects, some of which are reconstructions of existing

Abstract:
The proper surface water drainage not only affects vehicle movement dynamics but also increases the likelihood of an accident since inadequate drainage is associated with potential hydroplaning and splash and spray driving conditions. Nine solutions have been proposed to address hydroplaning in sections with inadequate drainage e.g. augmented superelevation and longitudinal slope, reduction of runoff length, and skew superelevation. The latter has been extensively implemented in highways recently, enhancing the safety level in the applied road segments regarding the effective drainage of the r

Coastal processes create the shoreline evidence of Great Salt Lake. Shoreline superelevation is the difference in elevation between still water lake level and the shoreline evidence produced by the lake at that level. Processes of formation include effects of wind strength, fetch, beach attributes, coastline aspect, and coast morphology. A series of field studies from 1986 through 2000 concluded strong storm winds from the northwest contribute to the patterns and magnitude of shoreline superelevation.

One of the technical possibilities to solve a gauge crossing is to install a dual gauge. This solution has several advantages and disadvantages discussed in this paper. Lack of experience of maintenance and lack of standards for the design of dual track are among the most important disadvantages. The wheel and rail interface on track curves is more difficult than in straight sections. Therefore, the subject of the present article is a geometrical parameter of dual gauge track, i.e., the rail superelevation, which has an impact on the wheel–rail interaction at curves and influences the value of

Abstract:
Superelevation transition is often used to help balance the centrifugal forces on vehicles through curved roadway sections. Such transitions have regions with near-zero cross-slope as the pavement cross-section rotates from a negative to positive grade. For drainage of roadway surfaces, regions with near-zero slope constitute 'irregular topography'. This condition promotes extended stormwater runoff drainage path lengths and may result in excessive splash from vehicles and hydroplaning. A critical concern is the effect of longitudinal slope on stormwater drainage through superelevation tra

In the industry the maximum allowable speed (km/h) is calculated by: Vmax=(Ea+Eu′)R11.8 where Eu′ = Blanket unbalance usually greater than design unbalance (mm); Ea = Actual superelevation applied to track (mm); R = Curve radius (m).
