  • Experimental Study on the Dynamics of Washboard Road on Various Surfaces
    Experimental Study on the Dynamics of Washboard Road on Various Surfaces Teeranai SRIMAHACHOTA Candidate for the Degree of Master’s Degree Supervisor: Prof. Shunji KANIE Division of Engineering and Policy for Sustainable Environment Introduction Washboarding is the spontaneous formation of transverse ripple on dirt road. It is usually found on unpaved heavy- traffic road under dry weather condition. Driving over washboard road may increase risk of traffic accident since ripples reduce the contact area of the wheel to the road. Mitigating washboard road has long been a challenge for the road maintenance [1]. In addition, spontaneous formation of ripple pattern similar to washboarding can be found on other physical system; for examples, rail corrugation [2, 3], sand dune [4], lubricated disks [5], and periodic ripples on snow covered road [6]. The mechanism of washboarding was first studied in 1962 Fig. 1. Schematic illustration of the experimental apparatus. by Mather [7], and he concluded that it caused by the (a) top view of the self-rotating track showing several ripples bouncing motion of the wheel excided by random formed on the track.

Refuge roads are those public roads that provide access to or within a unit of the National Wildlife Refuge System and for which title and maintenance responsibility is vested in the United States Government. Funds from the Highway Trust Fund are available for refuge roads and can be used by the station to pay the cost of: (a) Maintenance and improvements of refuge roads. (b) Maintenance and improvements of: (1) Adjacent vehicle parking areas (2) Provision for pedestrians and bicycles and (3) Construction and reconstruction of roadside rest areas that are located in or adjacent to wildlife refuges (c) Administrative costs associated with such maintenance and improvements. The funds available for refuge roads are to be disbursed based on the relative needs of the various refuges in the National Wildlife Refuge System, and taking into consideration: (a) The comprehensive conservation plan for each refuge; (b) The need for access as identified through land use planning; and (c) The impact of land use planning on existing transportation facilities.
