Journal of Rock Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering, 2018 Dynamic cone penetrometer (DCP) has been used for decades to estimate the shear strength and stiffness properties of the subgrade soils. There are several empirical correlations in the literature to predict the resilient modulus values at only a specific

Computationally efficient surrogate response models for mechanistic-empirical pavement analysis and design [PDF]
, 2011 This paper proposes the use of neural network- (NN-) based pavement structural analysis tools as surrogates for the flexible pavement response analysis in the new mechanistic empirical pavement design guide (MEPDG) developed for the American State ...

Advances in Civil Engineering, Volume 2019, Issue 1, 2019., 2019 LTRC is conducting a research project to determine the seasonal variation of subgrade resilient modulus (MR) in an effort to implement PavementME. One objective of that project, which is presented in this paper, was to locally calibrate the Enhanced Integrated Climate Model’s (EICM Fenv) curve for seasonal subgrade MR changes.

Real‐Time Road Crack Mapping Using an Optimized Convolutional Neural Network
Complexity, Volume 2019, Issue 1, 2019., 2019 Pavement surveying and distress mapping is completed by roadway authorities to quantify the topical and structural damage levels for strategic preventative or rehabilitative action. The failure to time the preventative or rehabilitative action and control distress propagation can lead to severe structural and financial loss of the asset requiring ...

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 ...
