Betonowe nawierzchnie przepuszczalne w obliczu systemów wielokryterialnych oceny.
PublicationCoraz większym zainteresowaniem cieszą się obecnie nawierzchnie betonowe, które dobrze współgrają, a zarazem kontrastują sie z technologiami takimi jak asfalt, płyty chodnikowe, kostka brukowa itp. Wciąż ulepsza się i poszukuje nowych, niestandardowych rozwiązań i zastosowań dla nawierzchni betonowych. Obecnie nie liczy sie jedynie pomysł, ale również to w jako sposób określony element będzie oddziaływał na człowieka i środowisko....

On the influence of shell element properties on the response of car model in crash test
PublicationIt goes without saying that numerical simulations play important role in the modern engineering practice. Contemporary CAD environments combined with FEM solvers, along with computer power of modern processors, give the engineer fast and efficient tool. Ultimately, however it is the user alone who is responsible for the correctness of the results. As long as the FEM calculations remain in the sphere of academic exercise, the inevitable...

Wpływ barier ochronnych na poziom bezpieczeństwa ruchu drogowego
PublicationWypadki drogowe wciąż stanowią znaczną przyczynę zgonów, dlatego bardzo ważnym jest odpowiednie kształtowanie otoczenia drogi – by mogło ono uzyskać miano „wybaczającego”. Artykuł stanowi wprowadzenie do tematyki drogowych barier ochronnych, i jest częścią pracy dyplomowej realizowanej na Politechnice Gdańskiej, w ramach której autorzy analizują zależności pomiędzy wypadkami a omawianymi urządzeniami BRD. W artykule przedstawiono...

Experimental validation of the rolling resistance measurement method including updated draft standard
PublicationThe main objective of ROSANNE is the harmonisation and standardisation of the measurement of skid resistance, noise emission and rolling resistance of road pavements. Regarding rolling resistance characterisation, a draft for standardization of a harmonized procedure for classification of road surfaces across Europe has been prepared within WP3 (deliverable 3.5). The procedure deals with the direct measurement on real roads of...

Effect of the Road Environment on Road Safety in Poland
PublicationRun-off-road accidents tend to be very severe because when a vehicle leaves the road, it will often crash into a solid obstacle (tree, pole, supports, front wall of a culvert, barrier). A statistical analysis of the data shows that Poland's main roadside hazard is trees and the severity of vehicles striking a tree in a run-off-road crash. The risks are particularly high in north-west Poland with many of the roads lined up with...

Technical and Economic Analysis of the Implementation of Selected Variants of Road Investment
PublicationThe aim of the article is to analyze three variants of modernization and reconstruction of a road intersection, which in practice is the cause of numerous collisions and accidents. Detailed design solutions are presented for them. The aim of the analyses is to indicate an effective solution that, taking into account technical modifications of the road system elements, will ensure the functionality of the road system to the highest...

The need for linear revitalization. Gdynia case
PublicationThe aim of the article is to discuss the need of defining and implementation of the linear revitalization - the new approach related to the revitalization processes. The results of the preliminary investigations indicate that this kind of revitalization seems to be an important tool supporting city management and planning, especially in cases of cities fragmentation - causing lack of physical, social, economic and ecological cohesion....

Bitumen Aging—Laboratory Simulation Methods Used in Practice and Selected Directions of Research on New Methods
PublicationChanges in the properties of bitumen binders that occur as a result of aging have a huge impact on the durability of products produced from them. In particular, asphalt pavements, which constitute the most common use of petroleum bitumen, are susceptible to damage resulting from the increasing stiffness of the bitumen during its life cycle. Increased stiffness of asphalt pavements reduces the pavement resistance to low-temperature...
