Summary: The research is trying to solve the basis aspects of
vehicle movement geometry: determination of relevant types of vehicles,
definition of a experimentally verify method for the determination of
movement geometry of vehicle train and numerical and graphic interpretation
of horizontal passability of characteristic vehicle types. The
investigation results may be used in theoretical and practical design of
road traffic area.
Keywords: movement geometry, vehicle, horizontal curve, intersection design
Research goals: A research carried by main investigator are related
to single vehicle. This proposal is further investigation for the vehicle
trains. Defining horizontal passability of vehicle train on the known
theoretical base, problem would be completely solved and investigation
results could directly be applied to problem of design of road traffic area
in engineering practice. Other information about the project.
