To protect the driver of off-highway dump trucks from the harmful vibration, this paper presents the comparison results to determine the optimal damping of the seat system by different optimization design plans. Three optimization schemes are considered including individually optimizing the damping of the cushion, individually optimizing the damping of the seat suspension, and integrately optim...

Considerable experimental and theoretical research has been carried out in an attempt to design an automated highway system that can provide more eecient utilization of the highways and at the same time be safer and more comfortable than the current highway system. Here we present a uniied framework for carrying out safety calculations for the automated highway problem. We obtain suucient condi...

Highway planning is a process wherein a highway network con­ sidered adequate to meet both the present and future traffic demands of an auto-oriented, ever-growing populace is visualized. It is also the process in which a procedure designed to implement the plan should be formulated. The first step in the planning process is the determination of high­ way needs. The elimination of these needs r...

Rural highway is the foundation of highway network construction and the important bridge for balancing urban and rural harmonious development. Rural highway has the basic, pilot and driving function to new rural construction. This paper took a sampling survey on 173 villages in Hebei Province.
