  3. Comparison of chevron and suspended-zipper braced steel frames Yigit Ozcelik a, Afsin Saritas b,⁎, Patricia M. Clayton a a Department of Civil, Architectural and Environmental Engineering, University of Texas at Austin, Austin, TX 78712, USA b Department of Civil Engineering, Middle East Technical University, Ankara 06800, Turkey a r t i c l e i n f o a b s t r a c t Article history: Received 22 June 2015 Received in revised form 14 November 2015 Accepted 8 December 2015 Available online xxxx a b s t r a c t Suspended-zipper braced frame is a modified configuration of chevron braced frame inwhich zipper columns are added between story beams and a hat truss is attached between top two stories in order to redistribute the unbalanced vertical forces emerging following the brace buckling to avoid the use of deep beams. In this study, three- and nine-story chevron and suspended-zipper braced frames are analyzed to compare their seismic performances. The beams, columns, braces and zipper columns are modeled using nonlinear force-formulation frame elements and nonlinear geometric effects are included by utilizing corotational transformation. Nonlinear static analyses are performed until reaching a roof drift ratio of 3% and a set of twenty ground motion records scaled to match a 10% probability of exceedance in 50 years is used for nonlinear time-history analysis. The results appear to indicate that the lateral load capacity and drift demands for both low-rise chevron and suspendedzipper braced frames are very similar; however, the mid-rise chevron braced frame has a better performance compared to the mid-rise suspended-zipper braced frame. © 2015 Elsevier Ltd.

  5. GIS-based system for sight distance analysis of highways María Castro a*, José A. Anta b, Luis Iglesias c, José A. Sánchez d Abstract Analysing the distance visible to a driver on a highway is important for traffic safety, especially in manoeuvres such as emergency stops, when passing another vehicle, or when vehicles cross at intersections. Software that calculates highway distances visible to a driver has been developed. This software is supported by a Geographic Information System (GIS) and can use a trajectory defined by points obtained with a GNSS receiver instead of relying on project information. The software includes specific tools for studying shortcomings in 3D alignment, mainly divings. In this article, the software and its application to a case study are presented. The results are compared with those obtained using an existing validated procedure Keywords: Highways and roads; Design; Sight distances; Geographic information systems; Terrain models. 10.1061-(ASCE)CP.1943-5487.0000317 (1).pdf
  6. Scoping prediction of re-radiated ground-borne noise and vibration near high speed rail lines with variable soils D.P. Connolly a,n, G. Kouroussis b, P.K. Woodward a, A. Giannopoulos c, O. Verlinden b, M.C. Forde c a Heriot-Watt University, Institute for Infrastructure & Environment, Edinburgh, UK b Department of Theoretical Mechanics, Dynamics and Vibrations, University of Mons, 31 Boulevard Dolez, B-7000 Mons, Belgium c University of Edinburgh, Institute for Infrastructure and Environment, School of Engineering, AGB Building, The Kings Buildings, Edinburgh, UK a b s t r a c t This paper outlines a vibration prediction tool, ScopeRail, capable of predicting in-door noise and vibration, within structures in close proximity to high speed railway lines. The tool is designed to rapidly predict vibration levels over large track distances, while using historical soil information to increase accuracy. Model results are compared to an alternative, commonly used, scoping model and it is found that ScopeRail offers higher accuracy predictions. This increased accuracy can potentially reduce the cost of vibration environmental impact assessments for new high speed rail lines To develop the tool, a three-dimensional finite element model is first outlined capable of simulating vibration generation and propagation from high speed rail lines. A vast array of model permutations are computed to assess the effect of each input parameter on absolute ground vibration levels. These relations are analysed using a machine learning approach, resulting in a model that can instantly predict ground vibration levels in the presence of different train speeds and soil profiles. Then a collection of empirical factors are coupled with the model to allow for the prediction of structural vibration and indoor noise in buildings located near high speed lines. Additional factors are also used to enable the prediction of vibrations in the presence of abatement measures (e.g. ballast mats and floating slab tracks) and additional excitation mechanisms (e.g. wheelflats and switches/crossings). & 2014 Elsevier Ltd.

  7. Quasi-Static Analysis of Geotextile Reinforced Unpaved Road Resting on c- Subgrade Shivraj Meenaa, Lokesh Choudharyb, Arindam Deyb,1 aDepartment of Civil Engineering, KIIT University, Bhubaneshwar, Orissa, India bDepartment of Civil Engineering, IIT Guwahati, Assam-781039, India Abstract This article provides an e stimate of the aggregate thickness required for unpaved roads resting on c- soil. Conventional practice of design of unpaved roads mostly considers the subgrade layer to be purely cohesive such as in soft marshy lands However, a huge bulk of Indian sub-urban and rural unpaved roads rest on c- soil subgrade soil whose strength characteristics are contributed both by cohesion © and angle of internal friction ( ). It is imperative that if cohesion is considered as the sole strength criterion, it will provide lower bearing resistance, and hence, will overestimate the aggregate thickness required, which will eventually lead to undesirable increase in the overall project cost. In this regard, this article reports the result of an attempt made to identify the diminution in the required aggregate thickness of the unpaved road when both the strength characteristics of the subgrade soil are taken into account. Utility of a single geotextile layer beneath the aggregate has also been investigated towards further reduction of the required aggregate thickness. Incorporating bearing capacity estimation of the c- soil, necessary expressions have been developed for estimating the required aggregate thickness as a function of the axle load, tire inflation pressure, cohesion and angle of internal friction of subgrade soil, angle of internal friction and load distribution angle of the aggregate. Extended ranges of the aforementioned parameters, as suitable in Indian context, have been considered and the effect of the same, in the absence and presence of geotextiles, has been reported Efficacy of the geotextiles has been elucidated in terms of the degree of improvement represented as reduction of aggregate thickness. Encouraging improvement up to the level of 70% has been observed in many instances. © 2013 The Authors. Published by Elsevier Ltd.

  8. Are totally recycled hot mix asphalts a sustainable alternative for road paving Hugo M.R.D. Silva a,∗, Joel R.M. Oliveiraa, Carlos M.G. Jesusb a C-TAC, Department of Civil Engineering, University of Minho, 4800-058 Guimarães, Portugal b Department of Civil Engineering, University of Minho, 4800-058 Guimarães, Portugal a b s t r a c t The recycling of reclaimed asphalt pavement (RAP) helps road authorities to achieve their goal of a sustainable road transport system by reducing waste production and resources consumption. The environmental and economic benefits of using RAP in hot mix asphalt (HMA) applications could be pushed up to the limit, by producing totally recycled HMAs (100% RAP), but the performance of this alternative must be satisfactory. In fact, these mixtures could possibly present problems of workability and durability higher binder aging and low fatigue cracking resistance. Thus, the objective of this study is to determine if totally recycled HMA mixtures could be a good solution for road paving, by evaluating the merit of some rejuvenator agents (commercial product; used engine oil) in improving the aged binders’ properties and the recycled mixture performance. Several binder samples were prepared with the mentioned rejuvenators and characterized (Pen, R&B and dynamic viscosity), in order to select the best rejuvenator contents. The production temperatures of the corresponding recycled mixtures were evaluated based on their workability. Totally recycled HMAs were produced with the best previously observed combinations and their performance (water sensitivity, rutting resistance, stiffness, fatigue resistance, binder aging was assessed. The main conclusion of this study is that totally recycled HMAs can be a good alternative for road paving, especially if rejuvenator agents are used to reduce their production temperature and to improve their performance. © 2011 Elsevier B.V.

Load Testing and Model Updating of a Single Span Composite Steel-Concrete Railway Bridge Darius Bacinskasa,*, Zenonas Kamaitisa, Donatas Jatulisa, Arturas Kilikeviciusb aDepartment of Bridges and Special Structures, Vilnius Gediminas Technical University, Sauletekio ave. 11, LT-10223 Vilnius, Lithuania bDepartment of Machine Building, Vilnius Gediminas Technical University, J. Basanavičiaus str. 28, LT-03224 Vilnius, Lithuania Abstract Actual static and dynamic response of a newly constructed composite steel-concrete railway bridge with a single span of 32 m is investigated. The m ain objective of this investigation was to increase knowledge on the actual behavior of new innovative structure using field load testing and numerical simulation. Static and dynamic loads were applied by using two heavy locomotives 2M62 with the total load of 2328 kN. Five dynamic tests were conducted at speeds varying from 20 to 100 km/h. The outcomes of the static tests were maximum displacements of the bridge deck and that of dynamic tests were vibration characteristics, and in particular modal parameters such as vibration mode shapes, frequencies, damping ratios as well as dynamic amplification factors. Results of these investigations are presented in this paper . © 2013 The Authors. Published by Elsevier Ltd.

  10. Study of road bases construction in Saudi Arabia using foam asphalt Hamad I. Al-Abdul Wahhab a,⇑, Mirza G. Baig a, Isam A. Mahmoud b, Hisham M. Kattan c a Department of Civil Engineering, King Fahd University of Petroleum and Minerals, Dhahran, Saudi Arabia bDammam Municipality, Dammam, Saudi Arabia c Roads and Heavy Equipment Department, Saudi Aramco, Dhahran, Saudi Arabia a b s t r a c t This paper summarizes the research carried out to compare the performance of foamed asphalt pavement mixes with conventional crushed aggregate for the construction of road bases. The research work focused on the investigation and evaluation of the feasible use of foamed asphalt technology for Saudi roads using marginal quality construction materials, marl, and reclaimed asphalt pavement (RAP) materials for local applications. Materials included the Ministry of Transport (MOT) granular base class A and B, subbase material class B, and reclaimed asphalt pavement (RAP) material. Foamed asphalt mixes were designed for subbase class B (foamed SB) and RAP (foamed RAP) material utilizing low percentage of Portland cement. Foamed asphalt mixes were optimized to meet dry and wet indirect tensile strength (ITS) requirements. Designed mixes in addition to granular base class A and B were evaluated for CBR, dynamic resilient modulus at 25 C and wheel tracking test dry at 50 C and soaked at 22 C. Results indicate that base class A has the lowest rutting followed by base class B then foamed SB and finally foamed RAP for dry condition at 50 C, while foamed RAP has the lowest rutting followed by foamed SB then base class B and finally class A for soaked condition at 22 C. Portland cement was effective in reducing ITS loss of foamed asphalt mixes. Resilient modulus testing indicated that SB mix has behavior comparable to base class A. Foamed RAP mix has shown the best behavior. Saturation has reduced resilient modulus of all mixes significantly. Foamed asphalt technology can be used successfully to construct road bases from locally available marginal or recycled materials. 2011 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

  11. Pavement temperature influence on close proximity tire/road noise M. Bueno ⇑, J. Luong, U. Viñuela, F. Terán, S.E. Paje Laboratory of Acoustics Applied to Civil Engineering (LA2IC), Universidad de Castilla-La Mancha (UCLM), Avda. Camilo José Cela s/n, 13071 Ciudad Real, Spain a b s t r a c t The aim of this work is to analyze the influence of the surface temperature on the acoustical behaviour of a semidense asphalt pavement located in an urban area. The sound levels emitted by the interaction between a reference tire and the asphalt pavement at different surface temperatures were measured with the trailer Tiresonic Mk4 LA2IC-UCLM rolling at a speed of 50 km/h. The analysis of the results shows that increasing pavement temperature leads to a reduction in the close proximity sound levels assessed at a rate of 0.06 dB(A)/C. Moreover, spectral analysis confirms that both the mechanisms associated with vibration and impacts and those related to the friction and adhesion between tire and pavement in the contact patch could be affected by the variation of the surface temperature. 2011 Elsevier Ltd.

  12. The effect of traffic tickets on road traffic crashes Roni Factor∗School of Criminology, University of Haifa, Mt. Carmel, Haifa 31905, Israela b s t r a c t: Road traffic crashes are globally a leading cause of death. The current study tests the effect of traffic ticketsissued to drivers on subsequent crashes, using a unique dataset that overcomes some shortcomings ofprevious studies. The study takes advantage of a national longitudinal dataset at the individual level thatmerges Israeli census data with data on traffic tickets issued by the police and official data on involvementin road traffic crashes over seven years. The results show that the estimated probability of involvementin a subsequent fatal or severe crash was more than eleven times higher for drivers with six traffic ticketsper year compared to those with one ticket per year, while controlling for various confounders. However,the majority of fatal and severe crashes involved the larger population of drivers who received up to oneticket on average per year. The current findings indicate that reducing traffic violations may contributesignificantly to crash and injury reduction. In addition, mass random enforcement programs may be moreeffective in reducing fatal and severe crashes than targeting high-risk recidivist drivers.© 2013 Elsevier Ltd.

  13. Introducing a modified gradient vector method for optimization of accident prediction non-linear functions Shahriar Afandizadeh, Mahmud Ameri, Mohammad Hassan Mirabi Moghaddam ⇑ Department of Civil Engineering, Iran University of Science and Technology, Tehran, Iran a b s t r a c t In this paper, a new optimization method has been proposed for accident prediction nonlinear models. This has been achieved by eliminating the Hessian matrix from the equation of optimal pace length in the gradient vector method. One advantage is that it is independent of the starting point in optimization processes and it provides convergence at the highest top as well. This method has been tested on an accident prediction model and its preference over the gradient vector method has been proven. 2011 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
