“…It is speculated that driver behavior changed on rutted roads so this impacted the resulting accident rate. Gallaway (1971), Luo (2015), Guo (2013) considered the impact of the road environment where the rut is located on the water film thickness and hydroplaning speed. Gallaway and FHWA collaborated to study the effects of pavement cross slope, pavement texture, and drainage length and rainfall intensity on the water film thickness through laboratory experiments.…”

Rutting, one of the typical distresses in asphalt pavement, is known to be a potential hazard to driving comfort and safety when considering driving performance. The cost of different treatment plans varies greatly, which directly affects the allocation and use of maintenance funds and the formulation of maintenance investment plans. The safety and comfort evaluation and maintenance threshold of rutting have an important role in determining the timing of rutting maintenance and the allocation of maintenance funds. At present, the research on rutting based on driving safety/comfort only considers the one-dimensional rut depth. It is difficult to carry out in-depth discussion on the influence of traverse and longitudinal features from the three-dimensional perspective, thus cannot establish a vehicle driving safety/comfort theory system based on real multi-dimensional rut morphological features. With the introduction of high-efficiency, high-density and high-precision advanced 3D laser technology, it is possible to break through the bottleneck of effective extraction and construction/reconstruction of high-resolution three-dimensional rutting features. This paper gives a detailed overview of the rut maintenance threshold standard and multi-dimensional rut indexes, rut comfort and safety evaluation, and maintenance threshold methods; and finally discuss the current problems and proposes future research recommendations. Future research will not only construct the multi-dimensional morphological of the rut with high resolution and with the cross and vertical slopes of the road considered, but also establish a multi-dimensional rut evaluation method and maintenance standard considering driving safety/comfort with comprehensive high precision, which can be used for the refining and revising of rut maintenance specification.

“…In this study, we adopted the Gallaway model [29] and the USF (University of South Florida) model [30] based on Luo's DFT (Dynamic Friction Tester) test results [20], which indicated that the two models provide more accurate results in hydroplaning speed prediction than other models. The Gallaway model is a classic model developed in 1979 by Gallaway B.M.…”

“…Since the laser point data includes the geometric information, we can estimate the water-film thickness by introducing the analytical models. Using this method, researchers [19,20] proved the feasibility of the 3D surface data for water-film estimation, demonstrating the feasibility of hydroplaning risk evaluation. However, current studies focus mainly on a relatively small region (one single lane) due to the coverage limits of the laser detection system.…”

Hydroplaning risk evaluation plays a pivotal role in highway safety management. It is also an important component in the intelligent transportation system (ITS) ensuring human driving safety. Water-film is the widely accepted vital factor resulting in hydroplaning and thus continuously gained researchers’ attention in recent years. This paper provides a new framework to evaluate the hydroplaning potential based on emerging 3D laser scanning technology and water-film thickness estimation. The 3D information of the road surface was captured using a vehicle-mounted Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) system and then processed by a wavelet-based filter to remove the redundant information (surrounding environment: trees, buildings, and vehicles). Then, the water film thickness on the given road surface was estimated based on a proposed numerical algorithm developed by the two-dimensional depth-averaged Shallow Water Equations (2DDA-SWE). The effect of the road surface geometry was also investigated based on several field test data in Shanghai, China, in January 2021. The results indicated that the water-film is more likely to appear on the rutting tracks and the pavement with local unevenness. Based on the estimated water-film, the hydroplaning speeds were then estimated to represent the hydroplaning risk of asphalt pavement in rainy weather. The proposed method provides new insights into the water-film estimation, which can help drivers make effective decisions to maintain safe driving.

“…Implementing a vehicle using this technique can generate a safer and more maneuverable vehicles for general and military users. Luo et al [11] studied the risk of the water slide on horizontal and vertical slopes and calculate the predicted velocity of water slide using two models that based on Gallaway and USF using three-dimensional laser imaging data and showed that the sliding speed is more sensitive to the lateral slope of the longitudinal slope, decreases with longitudinal grade increase and increases with lateral slope. Mashadi et al [12] designed a gyroscopic system to apply reverse (corrective) torque to the vehicle in the opposite direction of the coup.…”

Driving vehicles on curved roads is dangerous because of the risk of accidents. This is due to the centrifugal force, gyroscopic moment and hydroplaning of the vehicle, ending with vehicle slipping or tipping. The aim of this research is to find the critical speed under any one of the above mentioned risks. The water pressure under the vehicle tires was calculated using Matlab R2017a in order to find the pressure value that able to lift the vehicle causing slipping and then going out of control. The effect of many parameters, on the vehicle hydroplaning have been studied. These parameters are tire width, wheel load, and water layer thickness. While for vehicle slipping due to the centrifugal force or the gyroscopic moment, the following parameters have been studied. These parameters are height of vehicle gravity center, vehicle width, radius of the circular path and track angle. The results showed that the gyroscopic torque negatively affects the critical velocity of the vehicle, and it reduced it about 0.549%. The centrifugal effect is the has the greatest influence on the gyroscopic effect, and the gyroscopic effect pushes the vehicle outward and increases the radius of the rotation, while the gyroscopic couple effect, at low radius. of low rotation, is very small. Gyroscopic impact is increased by increasing the radius of the rotation path. The result also showed the increase of the road surface angle and surface at the turning the influence positively on the safe speed of the vehicle at all the above variables.
