Analysis and Verification of Thermal-Gradient Effects on Concrete Pavement
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: An experimental and analytical study was conducted to develop an effective method for determining realistic thermal-load induced stresses in concrete pavements. Temperatures throughout the concrete slabs were measured over ...
Forensic Investigation of Ultrathin Whitetopping Pavements in Florida
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Developed in the early 1990s, ultrathin whitetopping (UTW) is a relatively new technique for asphalt pavement rehabilitation. To evaluate the applicability of UTW pavement in Florida, in 1997, the Florida Department of ...
Bayesian Degradation Modeling in Accelerated Pavement Testing with Estimated Transformation Parameter for the Response
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: We discuss Bayesian degradation models that were developed for flexible pavements based on accelerated pavement testing with the heavy vehicle simulator. The models are fitted to data from the Florida Department of ...
Statistical Mixed Effects Models for Evaluation and Prediction of Accelerated Pavement Testing Results
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: We elucidate the usefulness of the mixed-effects models in analyzing performance-type data resulting from accelerated pavement testing (APT) experiments. Our analysis is based on an APT test designed to evaluate the ...
