Introducing the rubber plate impact method: a versatile alternative to close proximity test for tire-pavement noise characterization on asphalt highways [PDF]
Discover Civil EngineeringDespite its widespread use, the close proximity (CPX) test for tire-pavement noise is limited to existing pavements, posing challenges for timely and effective corrections of noisy pavements. Additionally, the CPX test entails significant procurement and

Integrating Pavement Sensing Data for Pavement Condition Evaluation [PDF]
Sensors, 2021 Highway pavements are usually monitored in terms of their surface performance assessment, since the major cause that triggers maintenance is reduced pavement serviceability due to surface distresses, excessive pavement unevenness and/or texture loss.
