Unified Pavement Distress Index for Managing Flexible Pavements
Journal of Transportation Engineering, 1992One of the innovative approaches for maintaining and rehabilitating the nation's highways is to develop and implement some form of pavement management system (PMS). This paper documents results of a survey on PMS use in the United States. In addition, a simple method for a PMS based on priority ranking is presented.

Advances in backcalculating the mechanical properties of flexible pavements
Advances in Engineering Software, 2006 In current practice, the evaluation of the performance of existing road pavements has become a priority issue for many highway engineers. To make appropriate rehabilitation and management decisions the engineer must rely on an efficient method for ...

Recycling of Waste Originating Form Flexible Pavements for Bound-Base Courses of Flexible Pavements
The Journal of Solid Waste Technology and Management, 2020Reclaimed Asphalt pavement (RAP) is a C&D waste originating from the reclamation of asphalt pavement which has completed its service life. Using RAP would potentially reduce reliance on primary aggregates and lowers the environmental impact of construction.

Viscoelastic Approach to Rutting in Flexible Pavements
Journal of Transportation Engineering, 1995Permanent deformation (rutting) in bituminous pavements is treated as a linear viscoelastic flow phenomenon and is calculated using the linear elastic layered pavement model VESYS, reported by Kenis in 1978, supplied with equivalent viscous material properties.

Utilization of RAP in Flexible Pavements
2020In modern days, life without the transportation industry is unimaginable. The roadways play a vital role in improving the economy of the country. As the roadways require necessary strengthening, rehabilitation or reconstruction depending on the severity of the damage caused to the structure during its service life, enormous quantity of RAP will be ...

Numerical Modeling of Flexible Pavements
International Review on Modelling and Simulations (IREMOS), 2015The road is a civil engineering structure that is not computed as the other structures of the field, for all stakeholders in its design elements characterized by their multidisciplinary settings in their values and behavior. The roadway is a complex system in its structure composed of various heterogeneous materials, its unexpected behavior due to the ...

Optimal Flexible Pavement Design
Transportation Engineering Journal of ASCE, 1978This paper proposes a model and solution procedure for the optimal design of flexible pavements that finds the best cost achievable for each possible combination of materials without actually computing the layer thicknesses. The primal-dual relationships and complementary slackness conditions of linear programming are used to reduce the required number
