公路隧道内火灾烟气温度及层化高度分布特征试验

通过在云南昆明—石林高速公路阳宗隧道内的现场模拟火灾试验,对不同纵向通风速率下公路隧道内火灾烟气温度及层化高度沿隧道的分布特征进行了研究。结果表明:拱顶下方烟气温度沿隧道呈幂指数分布;纵向通风速度对烟气层高度沿隧道的分布有重大影响,纵向风速较小时,烟气可以在隧道上部空间维持较好的层化结构,不会影响火灾发生时人员的安全疏散,而较大的纵向风速将导致烟气层高度沿隧道迅速降到地面,对火灾发生时的人员疏散造成威胁。

青藏公路路基纵向裂缝病害及其发生规律

路基裂缝病害是青藏公路上继沉降以后的第二大类型路基病害,此种类型的病害与公路左右两侧的太阳辐射差异密切相关。病害统计结果表明,发生在阳侧的路基纵向裂缝有22.5条,占总裂缝条数的70.0%,占路基纵向裂缝总长度的65.0%;其次,从病害发生路段的道路走向来看,路基纵向裂缝病害主要发生在走向为S90°、W S60°、W S30°、EW 0°和ES60°的路段,在走向为ES30°的路段上仅发生1条路基纵向裂缝。路基纵向裂缝与走向间的这一关系主要与高原上特殊的太阳辐射日变化规律和青藏公路主体走向有关。     

An exploratory investigation of the impact of ramp metering on driver acceleration behavior

Ramp metering has been proven as an effective freeway management strategy; however, the impact of ramp metering on drivers' acceleration behavior has not been fully investigated. A better understanding of acceleration behavior changes with ramp metering is critical to the adequate design of ramp metering facilities. In this study, drivers' speed and acceleration data were collected at two representative metered ramps in Los Angeles, California. The speed and acceleration profiles under meter-on and meter-off scenarios were compared. Statistical results demonstrated that ramp metering affects drivers' acceleration behavior at ramp acceleration lane. It was found that at the metered ramp with short existing acceleration length, the average acceleration rate from ramp meter stop bar to 500 ft downstream under meter-on scenario (4.72 ft./s²) is approximately 40% higher than when meter-off (3.18 ft./s²). The design of acceleration lane length for metered on-ramps should therefore take into account the potential impacts of ramp metering on driver acceleration behavior.     

Activity patterns,time use,and travel of millennials: a generation in transition?

Millennials, defined in this study as those born between 1979 and 2000, became the largest population segment in the United States in 2015. Compared to recent previous generations, they have been found to travel less, own fewer cars, have lower driver’s licensure rates, and use alternative modes more. But to what extent will these differences in behaviour persist as millennials move through various phases of the lifecycle? To address this question, this paper presents the results of a longitudinal analysis of the 2003–2013 American Time Use Survey data series. In early adulthood, younger millennials (born 1988–1994) are found to spend significantly more time in-home than older millennials (born 1979–1985), which indicates that there are substantial differences in activity-time use patterns across generations in early adulthood. Older millennials are, however, showing activity-time use patterns similar to their prior generation counterparts as they age, although some differences – particularly in time spent as a car driver – persist. Millennials appear to exhibit a lag in adopting the activity patterns of predecessor generations due to delayed lifecycle milestones (e.g. completing their education, getting jobs, marrying, and having children) and lingering effects of the economic recession, suggesting that travel demand will resume growth in the future.     

盾构隧道始发与到达段环间纵向压力空间分布规律研究

现场实测数据表明，盾构隧道始发与到达段各断面纵向压力较小，可能导致环缝漏水。为解决此问题，通过求解描述隧道变形特征的微分方程，获得隧道始发与到达段纵向力的分布规律；并以此为依据，提出纵向拉结构件的设计方法。研究结果表明： 1)在不采用拉结措施的情况下，进出洞口附近纵向力最小，接近于0； 2)距离洞口越远的断面，其纵向力越大； 3)采用纵向拉结措施可以有效地增大始发与到达段断面纵向力。在对纵向拉结构件进行设计时，其最小横截面积由隧道刚度和环缝止水垫闭合压力决定，其最小长度由隧道和地层之间的切向黏结刚度决定。
