Traffic calming that involves horizontal deflection of the stream of traffic, but not vertical deflection (up and over a hump), is most suitable for roads used by buses.
Developed in Germany as a means of testing the interaction between participants and standards of the particular sports surface, the DIN Standards ensure the presence of such positive characteristics as: Shock Absorption, Vertical Deflection & Area of Deflection, Ball Bounce, Surface Friction and Rolling Load SHOCK ABSORPTION Shock absorption is translated into two resultant forces, one absorbed by the floor and the other returned to the floor.
The high speed "A" devices are intended for high voltage, fast switching applications up to 100kHz such as induction heating, induction cooking, 480 to 575VAC offline inverters, flyback power supplies, UPS and microwave ovens, horizontal and vertical deflection circuits for CRTs.
