Abstract: Modeling of the pavement image formation process by using reflection properties of macrotexture showed that digital images of concrete pavements can be used to monitor pavement wear. The specific optical characteristics ...

Abstract: Digital image-based automated pavement crack detection and classification technology has seen vast improvements in the recent years. Although crack lengths and widths can be evaluated using state-of-the-art software with ...

Abstract: Roughness of a pavement surface is commonly correlated to its serviceability. On the other hand, on many occasions, investigators have attributed pavement roughness to inadequate skid resistance (friction) as well. However, ...

Abstract: Base grouting below a drilled shaft tipped in sand has been shown in many cases to dramatically improve both the initial stiffness and ultimate end-bearing resistance. After promising results from base-grouting case studies ...

Abstract: Accurate prediction of the pavement crack condition is vital for pavement rehabilitation budget allocation. Due to largely nonlinear surface layer properties, randomness in the cracking mechanism, and the complexities ...
