Application of FWD data in developing dynamic modulus master curves of in-service asphalt layers
Journal of Civil Engineering and Management, 2017 This paper presents a simple method to determine dynamic modulus master curve of asphalt layers by conducting Falling Weight Deflectometer (FWD) for use in mechanistic-empirical rehabilitation. Ten new and rehabilitated in-service asphalt pavements with

Computer-Aided Civil and Infrastructure Engineering, Volume 40, Issue 28, Page 5136-5152, 28 November 2025.Abstract Pavement life cycle management (LCM) is essential for assessing the long‐term environmental and economic impacts of roadway infrastructure by means of pavement life cycle assessment (LCA) and life cycle cost analysis (LCCA). However, pavement LCA and LCCA studies frequently overlook the use phase due to the limited availability of performance ...

Advances in Civil Engineering, Volume 2019, Issue 1, 2019., 2019 The resilient modulus of subgrade is a design parameter of the pavement structure, which is significantly affected by the overlying load and traffic load. It is important to calculate the equivalent resilient modulus of the top surface of subgrade based on the nonuniform distribution of resilient modulus in subgrade.

Computer-Aided Civil and Infrastructure Engineering, Volume 40, Issue 21, Page 3385-3402, 29 August 2025.ABSTRACT Although estimating the International Roughness Index (IRI) is crucial, previous studies have faced challenges in addressing IRI prediction for asphalt concrete (AC) overlays on Portland cement concrete (PCC) pavements. This study introduces machine learning to predict the IRI of AC overlays on PCC pavements, focusing on incorporating pre ...

Numerical Method of Flexible Pavement considering Moisture and Stress Sensitivity of Subgrade Soils
Advances in Civil Engineering, Volume 2019, Issue 1, 2019., 2019 Weaknesses of the subgrade structure induce the asphalt surface diseases and shorten the service life of flexible pavement. However, the resilient modulus (Mr) of subgrade soils is difficult to be evaluated directly since the subgrade is hidden and covered by the granular or asphalt layer.
