A review on present trend in speed bump

Abstract

This technical paper deals about the reducing the over speeding vehicles by using smart speed bump. According to the Ministry of Road Transport and Highways of India on 2016 survey statistics 9583 road accidents are occurred on speed bump in which 3396 are killed. In order to reduce impact caused by conventional speed bump replaced by smart speed bump It is formed by flexible material made up several hollow slots or unique slot. Each slot is filled with impregnated Shear thickening fluid (Non-Newtonian Fluid)the main principle involves here is pressure acting on the Material strip then the fluid acts itself as resistance against the pressure. When the tire pressure act on strip with low speed then automatically the viscosity level in the strip reduces, strip easily deformed vehicle will moves smoothly And another side if vehicle moves with high speed than it required it will act as a Rigid obstacle for high speed.Due to change in viscosity due to sudden tire pressure act on the strip. Where as in conventional speed bump the vehicle has to slow down in order to prevent damage of the vehicle. However the smart speed bump is sensitive to the speed of the vehicle. Vehicle need not be halt down unless if the vehicle is coming at the high speed. It will give more pleasure and comfort to the driver.
