Abstract: Markings are essential elements of roads and are important for driving safety enforcement. Traditional detection of marking defects relies on manual inspection, which is less effective. However, few studies could be found ...

Abstract: The identification and quantification of vehicle axle type are essential to evaluate the operational status of road traffic. Uncrewed aerial vehicles (UAV) are helpful in obtaining information about vehicles in most road ...

Abstract: This paper proposes a new modeling method to reconstruct hollow shapes of aggregate particles using the discrete-element method (DEM) to accurately characterize the microstructures of aggregates and efficiently predict the ...

Abstract: Material parameters in the Gurson, Tvergaard and Needleman (GTN) model were calibrated for G20Mn5QT cast steels based on tests of tension coupons and smooth notched tensile specimens, and complementary FEA. The mesh ...

Abstract: Compaction Measurement Value (CMV) is the most widely used quality evaluation index for intelligent compaction. However, with the growth of compaction degree, CMV becomes less accurate due to increased reaction force from ...

Abstract: The recycling of asphalt pavement is a widespread practice around the world owing to its significant social, economic, and environmental advantages. High-modulus asphalt concrete (HMAC) possesses excellent rutting resistance ...

Abstract: An innovative procedure was proposed to simulate the viscoelastic mechanical behavior of asphalt mixture. The existing fractional viscoelastic models were quantitatively analyzed, and the fractional Zener model was adopted. ...

Abstract: To improve the efficiency and reliability of intelligent compaction technology, there is a need to evaluate the influencing factors during the compaction process. However, available research is limited, especially in terms ...

Abstract: Emulsified asphalt is widely acknowledged as an environmentally friendly technology that contributes to the advancement of sustainable development in road engineering by conserving resources and reducing hazardous fumes ...

Abstract: In this paper, the thermal oxygen aging test was conducted on the styrene-butadiene-styrene block copolymer (SBS) type high viscosity modifier (HVM), and the appearance, solubility, functional groups, and molecular weight ...
