Abstract:
Maximum value of the heavy goods vehicles axle load is the main factor accelerating the pavement damaging process. We propose two algorithms for maximum load estimation on the basis of weighing results obtained in Weigh-in-Motion systems (WIM systems). The simulation (Adams/Car) and experimental test results from an instrumented vehicle have been presented. The difficulty of the maximum load estimation consists in the fact that WIM system provide only several samples of the axle load.
