Recovery Of Worn Parts By Electrodes, Sh.Kh. Yuldashev, M.N. Masharipov

Journal of Tashkent Institute of Railway Engineers

Studies have been worked on the restoration of various perishable parts with welding. The main purpose of the research is to increase the strength of the working surfaces of parts different coating by welding different types of covered electrodes. Studies have been carried out to determine the composition, structure, rigidity and eroding resistance of the welded covering material. As a result of laboratory research, the optimal composition of the covering material is determined and the optimal method of welding them to the eroded working surface of the parts is selected.

Calculation Of Seismic Resistance Of Reinforced Concrete Railway Spans Without Prestressing Reinforcement, U.Sh. Raxmanov, G.B. Ismailova

Journal of Tashkent Institute of Railway Engineers

The article discusses the calculation of earthquake resistance of reinforced concrete rail spans without prestressing reinforcement. The calculation is made for the main and special combination of loads. The calculation results show that with a design seismicity of 8 points, the bending moment in the middle of the beam span will significantly decrease compared to a design seismicity of 9 points

Increasing The Strength Of Worn Parts Withcomposite Materials, Masud Numonzhonovich Masharipov, Shuhratbek Xabibullo Ogli Yuldashev

Journal of Tashkent Institute of Railway Engineers

Researches are carried out on the built-up curly details. The aim of the study is to restore worn surfaces of parts by surfacing of powder composite materials. Inves-tigations are carried out to determine the composition, structure, hardness and wear resistance of the deposited layers. As a result of laboratory studies, the opti-mal composition of the surfacing material and the rational method of applying them to the worn surfaces of machine parts are selected.

Procedure For Asphalt Mixture Friction Evaluation For Wvdoh, Danielle Marie Hoyer

Graduate Theses, Dissertations, and Problem Reports

Monitoring asphalt skid resistance in the laboratory could aid in improved friction prediction capabilities and provide insight for developing alternative asphalt mixture designs in the future. The West Virginia Department of Highways (WVDOH) sought the design of a laboratory accelerated asphalt polishing machine to further expand on current skid resistance measurement practices. The design is modeled after the North Carolina State University (NCSU) polishing machine detailed in ASTM E660. The purpose of this research was to develop a testing procedure for the polishing equipment. Friction was monitored with the British Pendulum Tester (BPT) according to ASTM E303.

Specimens were prepared …

Frictional Performance Of Pavements And Estimates Of Accident Probability [Dec. 1980], James L. Burchett, Rolands L. Rizenbergs

Kentucky Transportation Center Research Report

Objectives of this study were to evaluate standard and experimental surfaces throughout Kentucky in terms of skid resistance and effects of traffic, and to provide criteria for judging suitability of these surfaces to satisfy requirements for skid resistance and economics. The effects of traffic were quantified by regression analysis and scatter of data. Criteria included an estimate of accident risks, effects of speed on skid resistance, and seasonal variations in skid resistance.

Pavements on low volume roads (less than 1,000 vehicles per day) maintained adequate skid resistances. Open-graded friction courses, with the possible exception of sections using phosphate slag aggregate, …

Skid Resistance Of Pavements [Sept. 1972], Rolands L. Rizenbergs, James L. Burchett, Cass T. Napier

Kentucky Transportation Center Research Report

Standard pavement types and experimental surfaces on roads throughout Kentucky were evaluated in terms of skid resistance and effects of traffic, wear, and polishing. Friction-vs-speed gradients and the relationships between locked-wheel and incipient friction were determined. Asphaltic concrete pavements on high-speed, four-lane roads were found to be significantly more skid resistant than on two-lane highways and somewhat more skid resistant than concrete surfaces (especially those containing calcareous gravel aggregates). Sand-asphalt surfaces containing significant proportions of limestone sands showed inadequate level of friction for the traffic sustained. Several experimental sand asphalts without limestone sands exhibited greater skid resistance; Kentucky rock asphalt …

Florida Skid Correlation Study Of 1967 – Skid Testing With Automobiles, Rolands L. Rizenbergs

Kentucky Transportation Center Research Report

The inclusion of automobiles in the Florida skid correlation study was promoted by the recognition of the following needs: 1) to compare stopping-distance measurements obtained with different instrumentation, 2) to suggest a standard method of stopping-distance testing, 3) to relate skid-resistance measurements of trailer-type testers with stopping distances of automobiles, and 4) to explore other skid-resistance measurements techniques using an automobile.

The vehicles were all full-size automobiles. Each vehicle was instrumented to measure a distance from a predetermined pressure in the brake hydraulic system to where the vehicle came to rest. Stopping distance in most of the automobiles was read …
