Abstract: Reflective cracking has been a concern for the performance of asphalt overlay on existing concrete pavements. Due to daily temperature fluctuation and traffic loads, significant movements of slab joints or cracks drag the ...

Abstract: The primary purposes of joint sealing in jointed concrete pavements are to minimize moisture infiltration through the joints, to reduce moisture-related distress (such as pumping), and to prevent the intrusion of incompressible ...

Abstract: Traffic noise causes discomfort to road users and residents near highways. Tire–pavement noise comprises major part of traffic noise caused by high-speed vehicles. Tire–pavement noise comes from tire vibration and air ...

Abstract: Wet pavement friction decreases due to the increase in water film thickness (WFT), leading to a significant increase in vehicle crash occurrences. The British Pendulum Test is one of the methods used to measure pavement ...

Abstract: Predicting water film thickness (WFT) is essential due to its significant impact on road safety, as reduced skid resistance caused by hydroplaning is strongly associated with increased vehicle crash rates. Tining is a ...

Abstract: Portland cement is a common sealing material used in wellbores for geological carbon sequestration. Two types of portland cement were reacted with carbon dioxide (

Abstract: Pavement growth (PG) refers to the expansion of the integrated slab length when all the contraction joints of the concrete pavement are close within the expansion joint (EJ). It results from the complex interactions of ...

Abstract: Reflection cracking is a common distress in asphalt overlays on cracked concrete pavements. Rubblization, which can minimize reflection cracks, has been used as an efficient rehabilitation method for aged concrete pavements ...
