Abstract: The structural equation modeling (SEM) method was used to evaluate the performance of pavement resurfacing treatments. The pavement performance was regarded as a latent variable that cannot be directly observed, pavement ...

Abstract: Pothole repair for porous pavements requires the patching mixture to have sufficient connected air voids, high strength, low moisture susceptibility, and high abrasion resistance. In this study, a cold patch asphalt mixture ...

Abstract: This laboratory study investigated the performance of open-gradation cold patch asphalt mixtures using two new solvents, mineral spirit and isoamyl acetate, for patching potholes in porous pavements. Mineral spirit and ...

Abstract: One obstacle to the optimal time for pavement maintenance treatments based on the expected performance or cost-effectiveness is the lack of posttreatment performance models at different timings. This study first summarized ...

Abstract: This study presented a Bayesian logistic model to evaluate the failure probability of asphalt pavement preventive treatments. The Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) simulation using Metropolis-Hasting sampling was adopted for ...

Abstract: Waste cooking oil (WCO) was investigated as an asphalt rejuvenator and found to have good potential. The properties of the WCO itself will change with usage and the WCO under different stages may affect the bond between ...

Abstract: Pavement cracks are a kind of common distress in road service time, and their length measurement is critical for pavement maintenance. The current automatic method of crack length measurement uses segmentation algorithms ...
