Critical Analysis of Speed Hump and Speed Bump and Geometric Design of Curved Speed Hump

open access: diamondTransportation Research Procedia, 2020
Abstract The motive of this study is to critically analyze speed humps and bumps on various accounts such as travel time delays, mileage reductions, exhaust emissions and propose a new traffic calming device, which can retain the positive impacts of speed humps and also reduce the disadvantages associated with them.

Effect of speed hump characteristics on pavement condition

open access: yesJournal of Traffic and Transportation Engineering (English ed. Online), 2017
Speed humps are the most common type of traffic calming devices due to their low cost and easy installation. However, in many Egyptian roads, considerable number of these humps is randomly placed without proper engineering studies and justifications ...

A large-scale study on the speed-calming effect of speed humps [PDF]

open access: diamondTransactions on Transport Sciences, 2020
Inappropriate speeding is one of the main causes for traffic-related injuries and fatalities. Studies have shown that more than 50 % of Danish car drivers regularly speed on urban roads and nearly 75 % of them speed on rural roads. Physical speed-calming measures, particularly speed humps, are widely used to reduce speeding in urban areas in the Danish

Humping Formation and Suppression in High-Speed Laser Welding [PDF]

open access: goldMaterials, 2022
Increasing welding speed can promote the productivity of laser welding. However, humping defects often occur, which limits the application of this strategy. The existing explanations for the humping formation remain vague, and mitigation and suppression methods are limited.

Effects of speed hump on vehicle performance in the Sekondi-Takoradi Metropolis, Ghana

open access: yesCogent Engineering, 2022
Upsurge in pedestrian-involved crashes, in the Sekondi-Takoradi Metropolis, has led to the installation of speed humps to ameliorate the situation. This has, however, attracted public complaints citing ride discomfort, vehicle damage and safety concerns.

Variable Density Speed Hump

open access: diamondInternational Journal of Students' Research in Technology & Management, 2016
This technical paper relates to a device that reduces the speed of any overspeeding vehicles travelling on a roadway.It is formed by at least one hollow strip of flexible material, made up of several receptacles located in the shell body. Each receptacle is impregnated with a dilatant shear-thickening fluid.
