Abstract

The results of improving methods for assessing the transport and operational condition of snow road surfaces on winter forest roads using a generalized complex indicator are presented. As the practice of developing timber resource bases shows, compacted snow cover is most often used as road surfaces in the winter. The use of snow as a road-building material causes significant difficulties in the operation of winter forest roads. The problem will be solved by the first developed methodology for assessing the transport and operational condition of snow road surfaces on winter forest roads using a generalized indicator, which determined the purpose of this work. The purpose of the research was to develop a method for assessing the transport and operational condition of snow road surfaces on winter forest roads based on a generalized complex indicator. The objectives of the research included: assessment of the transport and operational condition of road surfaces on winter forest roads; justification of the criteria for the generalized indicator of snow road surfaces; formation of training samples for setting up a neural network to assess the transport and operational state of snow road surfaces on winter forest roads for various criteria. The criteria for the generalized indicator were: the coefficient of adhesion between the wheels of timber transport vehicles and the snow surface and the strength of the snow road surface, modulo dynamic deflection. A set of studies has shown that the adhesion coefficient and strength of the snow cover will depend on the type of treatment and the distribution density of operating materials. In terms of overall properties, preference should be given to the treatment option with materials of fraction 5–10. In this case, the value of the generalized indicator of transport and operational condition should be at least 0,605, the coefficient of adhesion to the snowy road surface should be at least 0,4, with a dynamic deflection modulus of at least 195 MPa. Considering the sufficient adequacy of the data obtained, they can be recommended for increasing the transport and operational performance of winter forest roads and developing optimal plans for the winter maintenance of forest roads.
