Simplified Formulation of Virgin and Overlaid Pavement Deterioration Models
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A universal-type model, taking into account the various possible forms of deterioration rates during a pavement's life span, was introduced by the writer elsewhere. The subsequent deterioration curves for each cycle of the ...
Limitation of the Artificial Neural Networks Methodology for Predicting the Vertical Swelling Percentage of Expansive Clays
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The general swelling model has recently been updated in Israel by applying the Excel-solver command (ESC) analysis to new local test results from 897 undisturbed specimens. In this analysis, the goodness-of-fit statistics ...
Using the Artificial Neural Networks Methodology to Predict the Vertical Swelling Percentage of Expansive Clays
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Regular use of artificial neural networks (ANN) analysis for predicting the vertical swelling percentage of expansive clays may lead to inappropriate results in terms of their geophysical behavior. This paper presents two ...
Comparative Analysis of the Old MWHGL and the New NAPTF Data
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The new generation of aircraft will require more landing-wheels to be packed into basically the same space. A convincing illustration of the move to more densely packed landing gears is the recent Boeing B777, which has ...
Probabilistic Approach to Pavement Design Based on Generalized California Bearing Ratio Equation
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: In order to realize the thickness design of flexible pavements at a given probability level, supplementary analysis of the generalized
Critical Gap as a Function of Waiting Time in Determining Roundabout Capacity
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper presents a study of two important roundabout performance issues: (1) the impact of the waiting time of drivers on the approach leg, on the critical gap they accept before entering a roundabout and (2) the entry ...
Vehicle Flow Characteristics on Acceleration Lanes
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The purpose of this study was to investigate flow characteristics on acceleration lanes. Four acceleration lanes in Israel, which were videotaped, provided the data. Three separate analyses were conducted: the locational ...
