Perm Region

The article aims to identify problems in the road industry of the Perm Region in order to find optimal solutions. The methods of descriptive, inductive and institutional analysis were applied. Regulatory and legal acts, as well as the activities and responsibilities of state bodies in the field of road building and maintenance were studied. The share of citizens who noted an improvement in the state of roads in the Perm Region in 2019 was 21.2%. Nevertheless, more new roads should be built and the existing roads should be maintained according to regulatory requirements. To this end, the quality of asphalt concrete materials and placement operations should be monitored. It is hoped that future regulatory documents will forbid installation of heating pipelines under public roads in cities. In order to make informed decisions in the road industry in the region, the number of mobile laboratories, diagnostic and laser scanning complexes should be increased. Since the financing for the improvement and development of the road network in the Perm Region in 2019 was fulfilled only by 90.37%, it is necessary to strengthen control over the timely payment of completed contracts. The research findings can be used by authorities in the development of regional socio-economic strategies.

The quality of implementation, drainage, materials that do not meet the standards, and overloaded from the specified class of roads are the main causes of road damage. Thus violations and negligence both in the implementation or maintenance of the road can cause a lot of traffic accidents, damage to vehicles, and various things that can disrupt the comfort and safety of drivers or pedestrians. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of polypropylene plastic as an additive in the Asphalt Concrete-Wearing Course (AC-WC) layer. The use of polypropylene waste used as an additive is around 2.5%; 3.5%; 4.5%; and 5.5% of the asphalt weight. Based on the results of the analysis it was concluded that the mixture of AC-WC with the addition of polypropylene plastic experienced increased stability and decreased melting. Polypropylene plastic which can be used based on the five Marshall test parameters with the highest value of stability and lowest melting is 4.5% of the weight of asphalt.

Data Extracting

Pedestrian network information plays an important role in pedestrian location based service (LBS), and its completeness determines the quality of a pedestrian LBS. This study used volunteered data and BaiduMap to research how to extract pedestrian network information on the basis of pedestrian GPS trajectories. The method extracts human road information by three steps: cleaning track data, extracting the road network, and detecting and analysing the recognised pedestrian road facilities. Once the road network information is extracted, the information regarding road facilities can be obtained, e.g., pedestrian crossings, overpasses, and underground passages. This paper describes a new method for incrementally updating electronic maps.

Sensor Errors

Map matching has been widely applied in car navigation systems as an efficient method to display the location of vehicles on maps. Various map-matching algorithms have been proposed. Inevitably, the correctness of the map matching is closely related to the accuracy of positioning sensors, such as GPS or Dead Reckoning (DR), and the complexity of the road network and map, especially in urban areas where the GPS signal may be constantly blocked by buildings and the road network is complicated. The existing map matching algorithms cannot resolve the positioning problems under all circumstances. They sometimes give the wrong position estimates of the car on road; the result is called mismatching. In order to improve the quality of map matching, a deep understand of the accuracy of sensor errors on mismatching is important. This paper analyses various factors that may affect the quality of map matching based on extensive tests in Hong Kong. Suggestions to improve the success rate of map matching are also provided.

OpenStreetMap (OSM) is the largest spatial database of the world. One of the most frequently occurring geospatial elements within this database is the road network, whose quality is crucial for applications such as routing and navigation. Several methods have been proposed for the assessment of OSM road network quality, however they are often tightly coupled to the characteristics of the authoritative dataset involved in the comparison. This makes it hard to replicate and extend these methods. This study relies on an automated procedure which was recently developed for comparing OSM with any road network dataset. It is based on three Python modules for the open source GRASS GIS software and provides measures of OSM road network spatial accuracy and completeness. Provided that the user is familiar with the authoritative dataset used, he can adjust the values of the parameters involved thanks to the flexibility of the procedure. The method is applied to assess the quality of the Paris OSM road network dataset through a comparison against the French official dataset provided by the French National Institute of Geographic and Forest Information (IGN). The results show that the Paris OSM road network has both a high completeness and spatial accuracy. It has a greater length than the IGN road network, and is found to be suitable for applications requiring spatial accuracies up to 5-6 m. Also, the results confirm the flexibility of the procedure for supporting users in carrying out their own comparisons between OSM and reference road datasets.

Постановка задачи. Необходимо рассмотреть технологию ремонта дорожных покрытий нежесткого типа с применением холодных асфальтобетонных смесей на битумах марок БНД, СГ и МГ. Требуется разработать математическую модель конструкции автомобильной дороги, позволяющую демонстрировать распределение температуры по толщине слоя покрытия в зависимости от конструктивных параметров дороги с учетом теплофизических свойств материалов и температурных условий её эксплуатации. Также надлежит уточнить влияние температуры смеси на предел прочности холодной смеси заводского производства. Следует провести ремонт выбоин покрытия в производственных условиях при пониженных температурах воздуха. Результаты. По результатам моделирования распределения температуры в слое покрытия доказано, что применение холодных асфальтобетонных смесей обеспечивает высокое качество ремонтных работ при температуре воздуха выше 30 °С. Получены данные о зависимости температуры нагрева основания от температуры воздуха и толщины слоя, которая обеспечивает температурные режимы холодной смеси при её уплотнении. Установлено, что предел прочности покрытия зависит от температуры. Максимальная величина предела прочности холодного асфальтобетона заводского производства обеспечивается при температуре уплотнения смеси 50-55 °С. Проведенный ремонт выбоин дорожного покрытия при пониженных температурах воздуха доказал возможность выполнения ремонтных работ с высоким качеством в данных производственных условиях. Выводы. Доказана эффективность нагрева основания выбоины перед укладкой холодной асфальтобетонной смеси при ремонте дорожных покрытий нежесткого типа со снижением температуры воздуха ниже 5 °С. Установлено влияние температуры основания покрытия на ее равномерное распределение в зависимости от температуры воздуха и толщины слоя покрытия при выполнении ремонтных работ. Полученные данные о зависимости предела прочности холодного асфальтобетона заводского производства от температуры воздуха позволяет определять параметры уплотняющих машин, обеспечивающих высокое качество ремонтных работ. Statement of the problem. It is essential to consider the technology of repair of road surfaces of non-rigid type using cold asphalt-concrete mixtures on bitumen grades BND, SG and MG. It is important to develop a mathematical model of the road structure that enables modeling the temperature distribution over the layer thickness, depending on the design parameters of the road considering the thermal and physical properties of materials and the temperature conditions of the road operation. It is also necessary to specify the effect of the mixture temperature on the tensile strength of the cold mixture of factory production. Potholes of the coating must be repaired at low air temperatures of different repair technologies in production conditions. Results. Based on the results of modeling the temperature distribution in the coating layer, it is proven that the use of cold asphalt-concrete mixtures ensures high quality of repair work at air temperatures above +30 ° C. The dependence of the heating temperature of the base on the air temperature and the layer thickness is obtained, which provides the temperature conditions of the cold mixture during compaction. It is established that the ultimate strength depends on temperature. The maximum value of the strength limit of cold asphalt concrete of factory production is provided at the compaction temperature of the mixture at +50-55⁰C. The repair of potholes of the road surface carried out in production conditions at low air temperatures proved the ability to perform repair work with high quality of work. Conclusions. It is proven that it is effective to heat the base of the pothole during repair on non-rigid road surfaces at low air temperatures before laying a cold asphalt-concrete mixture. The influence of the base temperature on its distribution over the layer thickness depending on the air temperature and the layer thickness during repair work is established. The obtained dependence of the strength limit of cold asphalt concrete of factory production on temperature allows us to determine the parameters of compacting machines that ensure high quality of repair work.

Abstract: Good asphalt concrete and good care are required for the highway construction, to support the road capabilities and to raise the quality of asphalt mixture, one step is by adding additives into the asphalt. Additive material used plastic bag waste, while Basalt stone used as material that is raw material from hills. Waste plastic bag can be used in various ways, one of them by adding plastic into an asphalt mixture. Mixing plastic waste into the highway construction has two aims, to minimize plastic waste and to improve the quality of roads. This study was conducted to determine the effect of plastic bag waste use as a substitution of Asphalt Pen 60/70 by using Basalt aggregate toward Marshall’s characteristics of asphalt concrete AC-BC mixture. Initial phase of this research was to calculate Optimum Bitumen Content (OBC). The addition of varied plastic bag waste as an additive respectively 2%, 4%, 6%, and 8% in OBC-0.5, OBC, and OBC + 0.5 from the initial OBC of 5.35%. From the three OBCs, it was taken the highest value at OBC +0.5 of 3.3% for the production of test specimens in plastic OPC variation percentage of ± 2% by determining Marshall’s value and durability. Stability value continued to rise in the percentage of plastic bag waste content variation respectively 1.3%, 3.3%, and 5.3% by 1470.48 kg, kg 1476.28, and 1489.28 kg with 30 minutes immersion (temperature = 600C ) and 1286.42 kg, kg 1316.35, 1345.41 kg with a 24-hour immersion (temperature = 600C). This condition is caused by the additive content that is mixed with asphalt pen 60/70 in the mixture, it causes the adhesion of asphalt with aggregate become better until it reaches a certain value limit, which is at the limit of 5.3% with the best stability value of 1489.28 kg in the 30 minutes immersion and 1345.41 kg in 24-hour immersion. From the comparison of both stabilities, the obtained durability values were 99.84%, so that it met specifications for additive-added mixtures, ≥ 90%.Abstrak: Pembangunan konstruksi jalan raya diperlukan beton aspal yang baik dan perawatan yang baik pula, untuk mendukung kemampuan jalan tersebut dan menaikan mutu campuran beraspal salah satunya dengan menambahkan bahan aditif kedalam aspal.. bahan aditif digunakan limbah plastik kresek, sedangkan untuk material digunakan batuan Basalt yang merupakan bahan baku dari gunung. Limbah sampah plastik ini bisa dimanfaatkan dengan berbagai cara, salah satunya dengan cara menambahkan plastik kedalam suatu campuran aspal. Mencampur sampah plastik kedalam kontruksi jalan raya mempunyai dua tujuan, yaitu meminimalkan sampah plastik dan meningkatkan kualitas jalan. Penelitian ini Tujuan Penelitian dilakukan untuk mengetahui pengaruh pemakaian limbah plastik kresek sebagai subsitusi Aspal Pen 60/70 dengan menggunakan agregat bassalt terhadap karakteristik Marshall campuran aspal beton AC-BC. Tahapan awal penelitian adalah mencari Kadar Aspal Optimum (KAO). Penambahan variasi kantong plastik bekas sebagai aditif secara berturut-turut yaitu 2%, 4%, 6%, dan 8% pada KAO-0,5, KAO dan KAO+0,5 dari KAO awal 5,35%. Dari ketiga KAO tersebut diambil nilai yang tertinggi yaitu pada KAO+0,5 sebesar 3,3% untuk pembuatan benda uji pada persentase variasi plastik KPO ±2% dengan mendapatkan nilai marshall dan durabilitas. Nilai stabilitas terus meningkat pada persentase variasi kadar plastic bekas 1,3%, 3,3% dan 5,3% masing-masing sebesar 1470,48kg, 1476,28kg, dan 1489,28kg dengan rendaman 30 menit (suhu 600C) dan1286,42kg, 1316,35kg, 1345,41kg dengan rendaman 24 jam (suhu 600C). Kondisi ini disebabkan oleh kandungan dalam aditif yang bercampur dengan aspal pen 60/70 di dalam campuran menyebabkan daya lekat aspal dengan aregat menjadi lebih baik hingga mencapai batas nilai tertentu, yaitu pada batas 5,3% dengan nilai stabilitas terbaik yaitu sebesar 1489,28kg pada rendaman 30 menit dan sebesar 1345,41kg pada rendaman 24 jam. Dari perbandingan ke dua stabilitas tersebut maka diperoleh nilai durabilitas sebesar 99,84% sehingga telah memenuhi spesifikasi untuk campuran yang ditambahkan aditif, yaitu sebesar ≥ 90%.

This article traces the history of the development and operation of trunk road from Pskov through Gdov, to Ivangorod and Narva, which was actively used during the pre-Petrine era. This route can be viewed as one of the typical examples of the Pskov border road. Written and visual sources of the XVII century allow reconstructing the isolated sections of the road, estimating the quality of road surface and infrastructure, and characterizing everyday activities of the travelers. The texts of the report compiled by the Dutch envoy Albert Joachim (1616), schedule of routs from Pskov of 1656, “Notes about Russia” of Erich Palmquist (1674), and “Diary Notes” of the General von Allart (1700) served as the sources for this research. The travel from Pskov to Narva took traditional (long) route and two short roads. Travelers faced multiple difficulties common to the borderland roads – poor condition of road surface, lack of accommodation, absence of road signs, rough weather, threat to health and property. The maximum average travel speed on the known road was 61 verst (65.07 km) per day. The typical average speed of a summer trip was 30 verst (32 km) per day. From December to March, most commodities were transported between the cities by sledge. The road network of the Pskov borderlands was more adapted for winter trips.

Over the last decade increase in capacity and the intensity of vehicular traffic has increased manifoldly, including heavy trucks, super singles, and higher tire pressures, resulting in significant increase of dynamic loads on the road surface which in turn lead to high quality requirements for bitumen in order to avoid premature wear and failure of asphalt concrete pavements. One of the possibilities to increase the quality of bitumen is to use special additives and modifiers that can provide a high adhesion to mineral filler and inhibit the aging and degradation processes in the asphalt coating. To achieve this, in the present study composite modifiers based on bisimidazolines derivatives were synthesized. The developed polyfunctional modifier (PFM) of complex action provides enhanced thermal stability, significantly improves the adhesion between bitumen binder and aggregates, and also improves the physical-mechanical properties of the asphalt concrete. Based on the test results it is recommended to use the synthesized samples of the PFM additive with complex action in asphalt mixtures for road paving.
