Abstract: One of the 12 instrumented sections of the Virginia Smart Road was used to compare measured vertical compressive stress and measured transverse horizontal strain under the hot-mix asphalt (HMA) layer induced by a 25.8 kN ...

Abstract: Mechanisms of flexible pavement fatigue cracking and reflective cracking from a cement-treated base (CTB) layer were investigated. 3D finite-element (FE) models were developed to simulate typical pavement structures for ...

Abstract: Past studies evaluated the mechanistic properties, economic benefits, and ecological impacts of sustainable asphalt mixtures. However, questions remain concerning the effects of these technologies on structural pavement ...

Abstract: The objective of this study was to quantify the levels and sources of variability in the measurements of volumetric and mechanical properties of dense-graded asphalt mixtures on the basis of existing test data from state ...

Abstract: Current roughness prediction models require extensive input data including pavement distress, climatic, and traffic data, which may be difficult to collect. In addition, these models have geographical limitations; therefore, ...
