项目摘要
"This award is funded under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (Public Law 111-5)."The research objective of this project is to evaluate pedestrian biomechanics of safely walking on pervious concrete, compared to traditional concrete pavement, in normal and adverse weather conditions. The high permeability of this pavement makes melting snow and ice much less likely to refreeze and form surface ice. Less surface water, coupled with its open surface texture, may result in a much safer pavement under adverse winter conditions. Slipping and falling is a concern both for actual and perceived mobility, particularly among older adults. The objective of the proposed work is to determine pervious concrete pavement?s impact on fall protection as compared to traditional impervious pavement. The specific aims include: 1. Measure the material surface properties of pervious concrete and compare with those of traditional concrete. 2. Quantify the biomechanics associated with walking on pervious concrete and compare with those of walking on traditional concrete in both dry and icy conditions.Pervious concrete has the potential to improve traction and reduce instances of slipping and falling under adverse conditions. Creating a safer walking surface may decrease medical and insurance costs, while maintaining the mobility and independence of older adults. Characterizing movement on pervious concrete surfaces and comparing with traditional concrete will help identify important slipping-related attributes of the pavement surfaces.
“该奖项是根据2009年美国复苏和再投资法案(公法111-5)资助的。“该项目的研究目标是评估行人在正常和不利天气条件下,与传统的混凝土路面相比,在透水混凝土上安全行走的生物力学。这种路面的高渗透性使得融化的雪和冰不太可能重新冻结并形成表面冰。较少的地表水,加上其开放的表面纹理,可能会导致在不利的冬季条件下更安全的路面。滑倒和跌倒是一个问题,无论是实际的和感知的流动性,特别是在老年人。 拟议工作的目标是确定透水混凝土路面?与传统的不透水路面相比,具体目标包括:1.测试透水混凝土材料的表面性质,并与传统混凝土材料的表面性质进行比较。 2. 量化在透水混凝土上行走的生物力学,并与在干燥和结冰条件下在传统混凝土上行走的生物力学进行比较。透水混凝土有可能提高牵引力,减少在不利条件下滑倒和摔倒的情况。创造一个更安全的步行表面可以降低医疗和保险成本,同时保持老年人的流动性和独立性。表征透水混凝土表面上的运动并与传统混凝土进行比较,将有助于识别路面表面的重要滑动相关属性。
