Book Synopsis Guidelines for Conducting and Calibrating Road Roughness Measurements by : Michael W. Sayers
Download or read book Guidelines for Conducting and Calibrating Road Roughness Measurements written by Michael W. Sayers and published by . This book was released on 1986 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Road roughness is gaining increasing importance as an indicator of road condition, both in terms of pavement performance, and as a major determinant of road user costs. This paper defines roughness measurement systems hierachically into four groups, ranging from profilometric methods (2 groups), through response type road roughness measuring systems (RTRRMS's), and, subjective evaluation. The International Roughness Index (IRI) is defined, and the programs for it's calculation are provided. The IRI is based on simulation of the roughness response of a car travelling at 80 km/h. The report explains how all roughness measurements can be related to this scale, also when travelling at lower speeds than 80 km/h. The IRI emerges as a scale that can be used both for calibration and for comparative purposes.
Book Synopsis Influence of Road-Surface Roughness on Vehicle Operating Costs by : R. Harrison
Download or read book Influence of Road-Surface Roughness on Vehicle Operating Costs written by R. Harrison and published by . This book was released on 1990 with total page 14 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The paper describes some features of the vehicle operating cost/road-roughness relationships reported in the major international research studies from 1972 to 1986. This research is characterized by the use of road-surface roughness devices, fleets of experimental vehicles to measure fuel consumption, large-scale surveys of vehicle operators, improvements to speed and fuel modeling, and the development of user-friendly economic evaluation models. All studies report significant effects on operating costs following changes in surface roughness. The issues of calibration, new vehicle technologies, and extrapolation of study results are then discussed. The paper concludes by characterizing the main features of the research studies and shows the rise in operating costs attendant on allowing surface conditions from deteriorating to high levels of roughness.

Book Synopsis Development and Evaluation of an Inertial Based Pavement Roughness Measuring System by : Fengxuan Hu

This book was released on 2006 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ABSTRACT: Roughness is an important indicator of pavement riding comfort and safety. It is a condition indicator that should be carefully considered when evaluating primary pavements. At the same time, the use of roughness measurements plays a critical role in the pavement management system. There are many devices used for roughness evaluation. The major tools used for road roughness quantify are the road profilers. In the thesis research, in order to obtain useful pavement surface condition data for pavement evaluation, an inertial based pavement roughness measuring system was developed with the combination of modern sensor technology and computer technology. The research will focus on the development of new method to get the profile in order to improve the repeatability of the inertial based pavement roughness system, the hardware design and the software development which is used for data sampling and data analysis. Finally maximum entropy spectral analysis method was used to evaluate the road profile spectrum. In order to get evaluate the accuracy and correction of the laser profiler system, different roughness devices (including Dipstick, direct type profiler and the laser profiler developed) were operated in the test sites. The research focused on several performance measures, such as repeatability (before and after new method analysis), impact of operating speed and sample interval, correlativity and etc. IRI from these devices were analyzed to evaluate the correlativity between these devices. Some regression models were developed in this research. Test results show that the new method can improve the repeatability of the profiler system. The laser profiler system has good repeatability and the operating speed and sample interval do not have a significant impact on the inertial based roughness measuring system. With the reliable results, the system is ready to be used in the field application within the speed and sample interval range. Through the spectrum analysis, it shows that the spectrum has a qualitative relation with pavement roughness conditions.
Book Synopsis The Varieties of Religious Experience: A Study in Human Nature by : William James
Download or read book The Varieties of Religious Experience: A Study in Human Nature written by William James and published by Xist Publishing. This book was released on 2015-09-04 with total page 275 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Best Nonfiction Masterpiece of the 20th Century? “There are two lives, the natural and the spiritual, and we must lose the one before we can participate in the other.” - William James, The Varieties of Religious Experience: A Study in Human Nature The Varieties of Religious Experience: A Study in Human Nature is not a book about a specific religion. The author, psychologist Williams James does not try to convince the reader one religion is better than the other. He doesn’t even make a case for atheism and the scientific approach. The book is in fact about human nature and how we experience religion at a psychological level. Xist Publishing is a digital-first publisher.

Download or read book Black Soldier, White Army written by William T. Bowers and published by DIANE Publishing. This book was released on 1997-05 with total page 313 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The history of the 24th Infantry regiment in Korea is a difficult one, both for the veterans of the unit & for the Army. This book tells both what happened to the 24th Infantry, & why it happened. The Army must be aware of the corrosive effects of segregation & the racial prejudices that accompanied it. The consequences of the system crippled the trust & mutual confidence so necessary among the soldiers & leaders of combat units & weakened the bonds that held the 24th together, producing profound effects on the battlefield. Tables, maps & illustrations.

Book Synopsis The (Mis)Behaviour of Markets by : Benoit B. Mandelbrot
Download or read book The (Mis)Behaviour of Markets written by Benoit B. Mandelbrot and published by Profile Books. This book was released on 2010-10-01 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This international bestseller, which foreshadowed a market crash, explains why it could happen again if we don't act now. Fractal geometry is the mathematics of roughness: how to reduce the outline of a jagged leaf or static in a computer connection to a few simple mathematical properties. With his fractal tools, Mandelbrot has got to the bottom of how financial markets really work. He finds they have a shifting sense of time and wild behaviour that makes them volatile, dangerous - and beautiful. In his models, the complex gyrations of the FTSE 100 and exchange rates can be reduced to straightforward formulae that yield a much more accurate description of the risks involved.

Book Synopsis Spring Came on Forever by : Bess Streeter Aldrich
Download or read book Spring Came on Forever written by Bess Streeter Aldrich and published by U of Nebraska Press. This book was released on 1985-01-01 with total page 346 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Acclaimed for her 1928 novel A Lantern in Her Hand, Bess Streeter Aldrich became one of the most widely read interpreters of the prairie pioneer experience. In 1935, she published her masterpiece, Spring Came on Forever, a novel of two Nebraska pioneer families from settlement to the 1930s. Elsewhere an artist of the romance, here Aldrich turns romance on its head. The heroine is Amalia Holmsdorfer, one of a band of German immigrants who settle on the prairie. From her late teens to her mid-eighties she confronts and defeats the forces of nature and society that discourage or ruin others. Her life might be a modest triumph but for one detail: she married the wrong man. Quickly paced and precisely drawn, this novel is Aldrich's greatest tribute to the complexity, humor, endurance, and intelligence of the people who settled the prairie. Whatever its sentiments, it has as many cutting edges as a buzz saw.
