Superelevation in Bay Superelevation, Effect of Freshwater Inflow, Multiple Inlets and Wave Current Interaction Formulas

Superelevation is the amount of raise of outer edge with respect to the inner edge of the road surface. In case of railways the amount by which the outer rail is raised is known as superelevation. And is denoted by S. Superelevation is usually measured using the Meter for Length. Note that the value of Superelevation is always negative.
