Abstract:

The research uses the hourly measured data from the traffic automatic monitoring station along the Qinghai Provincial Highway of the Beijing-Tibet Expressway during the flood season (May-September) of 2018—2020, study the change feature of the variety of the pavement water film thickness, and finally build the forecast model between the water film thickness and meteorological factors. The results showed that: (1) The hourly pavement water film thickness at Gaomiaoqiao station and Hanzhuangcun station of Beijing-Tibet Expressway was mainly distributed between 0.0 mm and 0.2 mm, and the frequencies were 66.0% and 63.0%, respectively. There would be a small frequency (10.0%) when the pavement water film thickness over 0.5 mm, and both stations belong to strong variability areas. (2) The relative threshold method was used for statistical analysis, and it was found that the proportions of the pavement water film thickness within 0.1 mm at the two stations were 33.8% and 36.3%, respectively. The proportions of the pavement water film thickness between 0.1 mm and 0.6 mm were 59.2% and 56.0%, respectively. When the pavement water film thickness was over 0.7 mm, it is easy to slip, 7.0% and 7.6% of the vehicles were unstable and out of control respectively. (3) The daily and monthly variation characteristics of pavement water film thickness were obvious. The monthly variation of water film thickness at Gaomiaoqiao station and Hanzhuangcun station both showed a weak bimodal character, and the monthly variation trend of the two stations was not completely consistent. The peak of daily variation appeared at 02:00—06:00, and the low point appeared at 14:00—16:00, the peak appeared at 06:00 and the low point appeared at 16:00 at Hanzhuang Village station. (4) With the increase of precipitation intensity, the average water film thickness increased rapidly following the power function; when the precipitation intensity was between 0.00 mm·h-1 and 1.75 mm·h-1, the precipitation intensity was greater than 1.76 mm·h-1, and the average water film thickness increased and decreased. (5) The model of water film thickness based on meteorological factors and different precipitation intensities was established by using multiple regression statistical method, which has good operational value and can be popularized in practical work. (6) The calculated values of the water film thickness model under different precipitation intensities are significantly higher than those of the Ji Tianjian model and the Luo Jing model. The variation trend of the model presented in this article is more consistent with the Luo Jing model, the water film thickness increases obviously with the increase of rainfall intensity, and the calculated value of water film thickness increases slowly with the increase of rainfall intensity.
