Propagation of Thrust Due to Movement of Vehicle on Road
Abstract: The rapid growth of high-speed transportation systems has necessitated a detailed assessment of the structural effects induced by moving heavy vehicles. This study investigates the lateral thrust generated by high-speed vehicular movement and its implications for the design and safety evaluation of transportation infrastructure. A representative vehicle with dimensions of 18 m length, 5 m height, and 4 m width was considered for the analysis. The impact load generated by …
