On the development of the theory of energy-efficient rollers for road construction
The paper discusses the problem of increasing the efficiency of compaction of soil media by road rollers, considering from the point of view of the energy approach. The main criterion for determining the design features and operating parameters of sealing machines is energy efficiency as a comprehensive indicator of their work in compacting soils. Within the framework of this approach, the sources of loss of useful power of the sealer are analyzed both in the implementation of static and dynamic modes of surface force action on the medium layer and the ways of their solution are proposed and theoretically justified.
