A vehicle negotiates a transition curve with uniform speed v. If the radiuses of the horizontal curve and the allowable jerk are R and J, respectively, the minimum length of the transition curve is
-
- R³/(vJ)
- J³/(Rv)
- v²R/J
- v³/(RJ)
Correct Option: D
L = | ||
JR |
Jerk, J is the rate of change of acceleration.
