Usage of foamed bitumen in asphalt mixtures
(Growing Science Ltd., 2020-05-08)This paper focuses on the application of foamed bitumen technology in the production of asphalt mixtures. This technology replaces the common asphalt binder with foamed bitumen for production of asphalt mixtures. Given the ... -
Rheological properties of mastic mortar depending on petrographic origin of filler particles
(Growing Science Ltd., 2020-01-27)The aim of this work is to determine the basic rheological properties of mastic materials using a dynamic shear rheometer, in particular concentrating on the petrographic origin of the filler particles. 14 filler types ... -
Dynamic Impact Modeling as a Road Transport Crisis Management Support Tool
(MDPI AG, 2019-03-28)Crisis management must provide data to allow for real-time decision-making. Accurate data is especially needed to minimize the risk of critical infrastructure failure. Research into the possible impacts of critical ... -
Validation of Microscopic Traffic Models Based on GPS Precise Measurement of Vehicle Dynamics
(University of Zagreb, Faculty of Transport and Traffic Sciences, 2013-03-13)In this article we discuss validation of selected microscopic traffic models, based on the comparison of simulated vehicle dynamics with observed dynamic characteristics of vehicles recorded by the precise geodetic GPS equipment. -
Usage of Reclaimed Asphalt Material in Stone Mastic Asphalt
(Hindawi, 2019-08-04)The paper focuses on the issue of using reclaimed asphalt in asphalt mixtures used for highly traffic-loaded asphalt pavements - in asphalt mixtures of the stone mastic asphalt (SMA) type. It is a skeleton-type mixture, ... -
Issues of using Longer Heavier Vehicles on Roads
(IOP Publishing, 2018-04-13)Many logistics companies aim to save on freight costs. Recently, not only on Czech roads and on motorways, longer and heavier vehicles that exceed dimensions' limits appeared. For these vehicles, it is necessary to apply ... -
Portable Telematic System as an Effective Traffic Flow Management in Workzones
(Transport and Telecommunication Institute, 2015-04-18)Traffic infrastructure localities with temporal restrictions for example due to reconstructions, or modernization, are important aspects influencing the traffic safety and traffic flow. On the basis of our research, we can ... -
Urban Commuting and Daytime Population In Small Areas of a Metropolis: A Case Study of Brno, Czech Republic
(University of Zagreb, Faculty of Transport and Traffic Sciences, 2009-06-18)A simplified modelling approach to urban commuting patterns is achieved by focusing on daytime populations ratherthan on commuters, or on the commuting process itself. -
