Abstract: The present paper demonstrates the applicability of genetic algorithms, as an optimization tool capable of overcoming combinatorial explosion, to the road‐maintenance planning problem at the network level. Genetic algorithms ...

Abstract: This paper analyzes the road‐maintenance planning problem at network level using a genetic‐algorithm program, PAVENET, which is a computer model developed to serve as an analytical tool for pavement maintenance engineers. ...

Abstract: This paper describes the development of a computer model (known as PAVENET-R) based on genetic algorithms, an optimization tool capable of overcoming combinatorial explosion, to solve the pavement maintenance-rehabilitation ...
