  1. 1. Analysis of side friction impacts on urban roads : Case study Dar-es-Salaam

    Författare :Masatu L. M. Chiguma; Karl-Lennart Bång; Christer Hydén; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :Side friction factors; urban road links; speed-flow relationships; macroscopic method; microscopic method; SOCIAL SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP;

    Sammanfattning : Side friction factors are defined as all those actions related to the activities taking place by the sides of the road and sometimes within the road, which interfere with the traffic flow on the travelled way. They include but not limited to pedestrians, bicycles, non-motorised vehicles, parked and stopping vehicles. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Speed characteristics of urban streets based on driver behaviour studies and simulation

    Författare :Karin F. M. Aronsson; Karl-Lennart Bång; Bengt Holmberg; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :Speed; Characteristics; Urban area; Road network; Street; Traffic; Driver; Side-friction element; Driving simulator; Simulation; Measurement; Behaviour; TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIKVETENSKAP;

    Sammanfattning : The objective of the study was to gain in-depth knowledge of speed relationships for urban streets. The speed characteristics were examined using a number of methods for data collection. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Effects of top-of-rail friction modifiers on the friction, wear and cracks of railway rails

    Författare :Saad Ahmed Khan; Jan Lundberg; Rolf Dollevoet; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Drift och underhållsteknik; Operation and Maintenance;

    Sammanfattning : The railway is an economical and environmentally friendly mode of transport for long distances and heavy loads. The demands on the operators are increasing with increased competition in the market, and therefore they are currently demanding more track capacity. In the short term, the existing network is expected to deliver the increased capacity. LÄS MER

  4. 4. An Experimental and numerical study of heat transfer and pressure drop on the bend surface of a U-duct

    Författare :Tareq Salameh; Värmeöverföring; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Sammanfattning : This work concerns experimental and numerical studies of pressure drop and heat transfer for turbulent flow inside a U-duct and in particular the bend part. Such duct geometries can be found in many engineering applications where cooling air extracts heat from hot internal walls of the duct, e.g., passage cooling inside gas turbine blades. LÄS MER
