Hydroplaning on Multi Lane Facilities, Summary Report

M. Gunaratne

In this project, University of South Florida researchers developed methods for evaluating the potential for hydroplaning which could reduce costs associated with widening. In a series of tasks, researchers explored factors that lead to hydroplaning, in order to build a comprehensive model. The model was verified through tests on a course equipped to produce a regulated, adjustable water film.
