Comparison of Speed Control Bumps and Humps according to Whole-Body Vibration Exposure
Kirbas, Ufuk; Karasahin, Mustafa (Asce-Amer Soc Civil Engineers, 2018)One of the easiest and most efficient ways to control vehicle speeds is to create undulations perpendicular to the axis of the road. The types of undulations especially used for speed management on urban road networks arc ... -
Determination of Pavement Performance Thresholds for Comfortable Riding on Urban Roads
Kirbas, Ufuk; Karasahin, Mustafa (Amer Soc Testing Materials, 2019)Whole body vibration (WBV) exposure inside vehicles during transportation affects the driver and passengers adversely, particularly in terms of comfort, health, safety, etc. The main causes of the WBV to which the driver ... -
Development of pavement performance prediction model for bituminous hot mix asphalt on interurban road networks
Kirbas, Ufuk; Karasahin, Mustafa; Unal, Emine Nazan; Komut, Muhammet; Demir, Birol; Ocal, Kivilcim (Pamukkale Univ, 2017)The correct prediction of the deterioration of bituminous hot mix asphalt (HMA), which is a significant substructure investment for roads, is an indispensable element in the correct sorting of the budget allocated for ... -
Investigation of ride comfort limits on urban asphalt concrete pavements
Kirbas, Ufuk; Karasahin, Mustafa (Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2018)It is well known that pavement distress negatively affects the drivers and passengers of vehicles. Many studies report that foremost among these negative effects is the vibrations that form within the vehicle. Ride comfort ... -
IRI Sensitivity to the Influence of Surface Distress on Flexible Pavements
Kirbas, Ufuk (Mdpi, 2018)Today, authorities responsible for the operation of highways aim to provide comfort to road users as well as safety while driving. While driving, the most important component that determines comfort for road users is the ... -
A Method for Determining Existing Pavement Performance in Urban Roads
Kirbas, Ufuk; Karasahin, Mustafa (Turkish Chamber Civil Engineers, 2018)The obligation of establishing system(s) that manage the suitability of road pavements in urban roads is inevitable. In a system which is established with the aim of ensuring the management of the pavements, the most ... -
Pavement performance levels causing human health risks
Kirbas, Ufuk; Karasahin, Mustafa (Croatian Soc Civil Engineers-Hsgi, 2018)This study investigates performance thresholds of hot mix asphalt pavements in terms of health risks from vibrations affecting drivers of passenger cars on urban roads. The whole-body vibration values in vertical direction ... -
Performance models for hot mix asphalt pavements in urban roads
Kirbas, Ufuk; Karasahin, Mustafa (Elsevier Sci Ltd, 2016)The correct budget allocation for road maintenance, which represents a significant infrastructure investment in urban roads, requires the accurate prediction of the deterioration of bituminous hot mix asphalt (HMA). In ...
