Pavement ageing influence on tyre/road noise
PublicationRoad surface should be constructed in a way that ensures safe and comfortable traffic conditions, not only when it is newly paved but also during its entire lifetime. An important factor in the asphalt mixture design process is also the expected pavement durability and stability of pavement properties over time. In many countries, road surface starts to play a significant role in traffic noise reduction actions. Selecting a particular...

Effect of pavement roughness and vehicle dynamic loads on decrease of fatigue life of flexible pavements
PublicationDue to the fact that pavement surfaces are not ideally even, dynamic loads of vehicle axles deviate from static loads. Higher dynamic loads contribute to faster pavement distress. The distribution of dynamic loads is similar to normal distribution and can be described by static load and factors DI (dynamic impact) and DLC (dynamic load coefficient). With the deterioration of pavement condition its evenness decreases as well and...

Contribution of dynamic vehicle loads to pavement failure
PublicationPavement surfaces are not ideally even, which causes dynamic loads of vehicle axles. Distribution of dynamic loads of a given axle is similar to normal distribution and can be described by static load and dynamic load coefficient. The dynamic load coefficient depends on road profile, vehicle speed, properties of suspensions and static load of axle. While for a given road section road profile remains constant, vehicle speed and...

Impregnation vibro-pressed concrete pavement bricks.
PublicationW materiałach przedstawiono wyniki badań uzyskanych podczas prób impregnacji wibroprasowanych elementów betonowych. Celem badań było określenie odpowiedniego składu kompozycji impregnacyjnej, aby uzyskać najlepszy efekt zabezpieczenia powierzchni betonu przed wnikaniem cieczy organicznych np. oleju mineralnego.

Employing economical methods for pavement defects estimation
PublicationIt is a common practise that measurements of road surface conditions are made using professional and expensive apparatus. Typically a van or a truck equipped with a set of professional sensors i.e. laser scanners of surface is used, therefore the measurement update period is often quite long. Two alternative low-cost methods for estimating road pavement defects and failures were proposed and investigated by the authors. The first...

The new measures of the population ageing
PublicationZestarzenie się populacji mierzy sie zwykle frakcją osób starszych. Miara ta nie uwzględnia rozkładu wieku wśród osób starszych. W pracy przedstawiane są nowe miary zestarzenia się populacji, których ideę zaczerpnięto z ekonomiki ubóstwa: absolutna luka wiekowa AG, relatywna luka wiekowa RAG, syntetyczna miara HRAG=HCR. RAG oraz syntetyczna miara P2. Te nowe miary testowo analizując proces zestarzenia się w 4 krajach europejskich...

Ageing Workforce – a Challenge for Organizations
PublicationAgeing and its consequences are most frequently analysed in macroscale. If the analyses apply to enterprises, they usually cover working conditions or motivations of the seniors’ choice between continuing employment and retirement. The article discusses slightly different themes, namely the awareness of demographic changes, their consequences for the organization and the new professional role of older people in the new demographic...

The best porous asphalt pavement in Sweden so far
PublicationIn 2010 a double-layer porous asphalt concrete (DPAC) pavement was constructed in various versions on the E4 motorway through the Swedish city Huskvarna. As a result of a court decision the Swedish Transport Administration had to reduce noise emission by applying a low noise road surface that would reduce A-weighted noise levels by 5 dB, as an average. Earlier experience in Sweden indicated that it was possible to obtain a high...

Tire camber angle influence on tire-pavement noise
PublicationTaking into account tire-pavement noise and tires classification with respect to noise emission special measurement methods are usually used. When two of them are applied (the Laboratory Drum Method (DR) and the Close-Proximity Method (CPX)) the investigator has to be sure that the position of the tire is correct. The authors of this paper thought about tire position as tire (wheel) alignment in particular tire camber angle. They...

Influence of Road Wetness on Tire-Pavement Rolling Resistance
PublicationRolling resistance of tires is one of the most important factors influencing energy consumption of road vehicles, especially on rural roads. For practical reasons, most of rolling resistance measurements are usually performed for dry road conditions. Based on the fact that roads are wet during a considerable time over the year and as part of the projects MIRIAM, ROLRES and ROSANNE, the TUG (Technical University of Gdańsk) in Poland...

Evaluation of Pavement Temperatures in Poland During Winter Conditions
PublicationThe paper presents the analysis of pavement temperatures from meteorological stations located at the Polish national roads during the impact of low winter temperatures. Presented issue is particularly important in view of the problem of low-temperature cracks that occur in the asphalt pavement under the influence of low temperatures. For each location of meteorological station there were analysed measurements of the temperature...

Ageing of Society — Local Disparities. Classification of the Pomorskie Voivodship Communes According to the Pace and Progress of Local Communities’ Ageing
PublicationThe article deals with the issues of local disparities in the field of advancement and pace of demographic ageing. The subjects of the research were communes of the Pomorskie Voivodship. The purpose of the article — i.e., diagnosing and assessing the progress and pace of ageing of local communities in all 123 communes of the Pomorskie Voivodship, was achieved using a combination of traditional measures of ageing: age factor,...
