Energy harvesting from vehicular traffic over speed bumps: A review [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Energy used by vehicles to slow down in areas of limited speed is wasted. A traffic energy-harvesting device (TEHD) is capable of harvesting vehicle energy when passing over a speed bump. This paper presents a classification of the different technologies

Device for forced reduction of speed with the function of generating electricity [PDF]

open access: yesAvtomobilʹnyj Transport (Harʹkov), 2019
Problem. The danger posed by high-speed vehicles passing through crowded areas is extremely high. An analysis of the cause of accidents involving victims in Ukraine showed that speeding was the main cause for that in the city.

How Drivers Feel When Traversing Speed Humps under a Variety of Driving Conditions

open access: yesEngineering Proceedings, 2023
Speeding is known to be one of the main causes of traffic crashes. Therefore, various speed management techniques are applied to prevent accidents caused by speeding in many countries.

Research on Energy Dissipation Mechanism of Hump Characteristics Based on Entropy Generation and Coupling Excitation Mechanism of Internal Vortex Structure of Waterjet Pump at Hump Region

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering
High-speed mixed-flow and axial-flow pumps often exhibit hump or double-hump patterns in flow–head curves. Operating in the hump region can cause flow disturbances, increased vibration, and noise in pumps and systems.

Variable Density Speed Hump

open access: yesInternational 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.

Numerical and Experimental Analysis of Flow and Pulsation in Hump Section of Siphon Outlet Conduit of Axial Flow Pump Device

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2021
In order to study the variation law of the flow field and pressure fluctuation in the hump section of the siphon outlet conduit, the flow field characteristics and frequency spectrum characteristics of the flow field were analyzed by combining a physical

Investigation of humping defect formation in a lap joint at a high-speed hybrid laser-GMA welding

open access: yesResults in Physics, 2019
Productivity rise can be realized at high-speed welding, but in a practice, the constraints emanate from the tolerance welding speed limit beyond which generate humping defects and the likes.
