Abstract: The objective of this study was to employ an artificial neural network (ANN) to predict asphalt-rubber (AR) rutting performance characteristics using binder properties, crumb rubber (CR) gradations, and mechanical test ...

Abstract: The main objective of this study was to develop predictive models to estimate the viscoelastic phase angle (

Abstract: Rapid urbanization has been causing a change in the urban climate resulting in urban heat islands (UHIs). In the area of transportation pavement infrastructure and its effect on UHI, the impact of these changes can be ...

Abstract: The main objective of this study was to develop comprehensive criteria to evaluate the remaining service life of existing roads as regards their field fatigue cracking characteristics using fracture mechanics principles ...

Abstract: Rapid urbanization has been causing a change in the urban climate resulting in urban heat islands (UHIs). In the area of transportation pavement infrastructure and its effect on UHI, the impact of these changes can be ...

Abstract: The objective of this study was to develop a deep neural network (DNN)-based approach to predict the overlay thickness of asphalt pavements using deflection bowl parameters measured with a falling weight deflectometer and ...

Abstract: The objective of this study was to develop a generic pavement condition assessment scale, called the unified pavement health index (UPHI), that is capable of quantifying asphalt pavement surface quality, which could be ...
