Development of a Relationship between Pavement Condition Index and International Roughness Index in Rural Road Network

Advances in Civil Engineering, 2021
The main objective of this paper was to investigate the relationship between PCI and IRI values of the rural road network. To this end, 6000 pavement sections of the rural road network in Iran were selected.

Evaluation of Longitudinal Irregularity in Airport Pavements and Unpaved Runway

Engineering Proceedings, 2023
This paper presents a study about the effect of unevenness on conventional airport pavements and unpaved runways. During landing and take-off operations, aircraft tires are at high levels of tension and possible surface roughness can contribute to ...

Finite element based surface roughness study for ohmic contact of microswitches [PDF]

, 2012
Finite element method (FEM) is used to model ohmic contact in microswitches. A determinist approach is adopted, including atomic force microscope (AFM) scanning real contact surfaces and generating rough surfaces with three-dimensional mesh.

Bridge expansion joint in road transition curve: effects assessment on heavy vehicles [PDF]

, 2017
Properly-designed road surfaces provide a durable surface on which traffic can pass smoothly and safely. In fact, the main causes that determine the structural decay of the pavement and its parts are the traffic loads.

Toward reduction of artifacts in fused images [PDF]

, 2011
Most fusion satellite image methodologies at pixel-level introduce false spatial details, i.e.artifacts, in the resulting fusedimages. In many cases, these artifacts appears because image fusion methods do not consider the differences in roughness or ...

Impact of pavement condition on passenger car traffic

Građevinar, 2016
The present paper explores the influence of pavement condition, roughness, and longitudinal grade on the operating speed (V85) of passenger car traffic at multi-lane roads. The pavement condition is described as a pavement condition index, while pavement
