Abstract: Cracking is one of the major distresses impacting pavement quality, serviceability, and lifespan. Thus, accurate, precise, and complete cracking detection is important in the maintenance, performance evaluation, structure, ...

Abstract: Automatic pavement cracking detection is of great practical value for pavement maintenance, pavement performance evaluation and prediction, and material and structure design. However, detecting pavement cracks rapidly, ...

Abstract: The performance of fiber asphalt mixture was studied through a series of capability test, such as water stability test, high stability test, low temperature crack resistance test and fatigue stability test. In the water ...

Abstract: This work reveals the potential of mechanics of structure genome (MSG) for the free-edge stress analysis of composite laminates. First, the cross-sectional analysis specialized from MSG is formulated for solving a generalized ...

Abstract: The interlaminar stress in angle-ply and cross-ply composite laminates subjected to twisting deformation are investigated. Two mechanisms of interlaminar load transfer have been developed by studying the angle-ply laminate ...

Abstract: This paper reports numerical modeling results investigating the diving potential and optimization of offshore anchors. A simplified two-dimensional plate anchor model and a complex three-dimensional anchor model were ...

Abstract: The wheel wear situation on the railway vehicles will affect the train running stability and riding comfort. Thus, the prediction model of wheel tread wear is critical for anticipating the wheelset state information and ...
