Abstract: The in-situ lateral temperature around freezing pipes in an artificially frozen shaft lining (FSL) is always nonuniform. In order to obtain a better understanding of the radial thermal gradient–dependent deformation behaviors ...

Abstract: The effect of basalt fiber on asphalt binder and mastic at low temperatures is investigated in this study. Basalt fibers are dispersed into the asphalt binder and mastic specimens to prepare the fiber-reinforced binding ...

Abstract: Fatigue damage is one of the most common distresses observed in the asphalt-concrete pavements. Both the initiation and propagation of fatigue cracking are complicated and very difficult to detect because they develop ...

Abstract: This paper presents our research results of visualizing three–dimensional (3D) city models in a web explorer environment under the supports of the digital building model, the digital terrain model, large-scale true urban ...

Abstract: This paper presents a research effort undertaken to explore the applicability of data mining and knowledge discovery (DMKD) in combination with Geographic Information System (GIS) technology to pavement management to better ...
