Adaboost Algorithm in Artificial Intelligence for Optimizing the IRI Prediction Accuracy of Asphalt Concrete Pavement [PDF]
The international roughness index (IRI) for roads is a crucial pavement design criterion in the Mechanistic-Empirical Pavement Design Guide (MEPDG). However, studies have shown that the IRI transfer function in the MEPDG is simply a linear combination of

Incorporating the Benefits of Geosynthetic into MEPDG
One of the most effective ways to increase the longevity of pavement structures is through the integration of geosynthetic reinforcement. Geosynthetics are synthetic materials such as geotextiles, geogrids, or geocomposites that are added to the ...
