Methods for determining the friction coefficient of the road surface

DOI: https://doi.org/10.3846/mla.2019.7079

Abstract

In spite of advances in aviation technology, operational procedures and weather forecasting, safe winter runway operations remain a challenge for airport operators, air traffic controllers, airlines and pilots who must coordinate their actions under rapidly-changing weather conditions. The paper analyses most popular methods for determining the friction coefficient of the road surface. Their advantages, disadvantages and comparison of their modern instruments for measuring the frictional properties of airfields is shown. Most of the information was derived from a comprehensive literature review.

Trinties koeficiento su kelio danga nustatymo metodai


Santrauka


Nepaisant aviacijos technologijų pažangos, operacinių procedūrų ir oro prognozių, saugios kilimo ir tūpimo tako operacijos žiemą išlieka iššūkiu oro uostų valdytojams, skrydžių vadovams, oro linijoms ir pilotams, kurie turi koordinuoti savo veiksmus sparčiai besikeičiančiomis oro sąlygomis. Straipsnyje analizuojami populiariausieji kelio dangos trinties koeficiento nustatymo metodai. Pateikiami jų privalumai, trūkumai ir lyginami jų modernūs prietaisai, skirti aerodromų trinties savybėms matuoti. Didžioji dalis informacijos buvo gauta iš išsamios literatūros apžvalgos.


Reikšminiai žodžiai: trinities koeficientas, matavimo metodai, kelio paviršius, aerodromas, paviršiaus nelygumai, mikroprofilis.
