Unified Pavement Distress Index for Managing Flexible Pavements
Journal of Transportation Engineering, 1992One of the innovative approaches for maintaining and rehabilitating the nation's highways is to develop and implement some form of pavement management system (PMS). This paper documents results of a survey on PMS use in the United States. In addition, a simple method for a PMS based on priority ranking is presented.

Wavelet-Based Pavement Distress Classification
Transportation Research Record: Journal of the Transportation Research Board, 2005A two-step method–-wavelet transform followed by Radon transform–- is proposed for pavement distress classification. First, a pavement image is decomposed into different frequency subbands by wavelet transform. Distress is transformed into the high-amplitude wavelet coefficients, which are referred to as the details, in the high-frequency subbands ...

Automatic Pavement‐Distress‐Survey System
Journal of Transportation Engineering, 1990An automatic pavement-distress-survey system that uses laser, video, and image processing techniques has recently been developed. This system consists of a survey vehicle and a data-processing system. The survey vehicle can measure cracking, rutting, and longitudinal profile simultaneously, without contact, rapidly and accurately.

Automatic pavement distress detection system
Information Sciences, 1998Abstract Statistics published by the Federal Highway Administration indicates that maintenance and rehabilitation of highway pavements in the United States requires over $17 billion a year. Conventional visual and manual pavement distress analysis approaches that the inspectors traverse the roads, stop and measure the distress objects when they are ...

Effects of autonomous vehicles on pavement distress & road safety and pavement distress optimization
2021The commercial application of automation technology in passenger and freight transport will bring positive revolutionary changes in transportation mobility. Despite having more advantages, automation in trucking technology has some detrimental effects on the performance of asphalt pavement and highway safety.

Pavement Distresses at Intersections
1995Asphaltic concrete pavements at intersections and their approaches, where traffic is required to stop and start, exhibit several types of distress. Among the more prominent forms of these distresses are deep rutting, pushing and shoving, and severe wash boarding.

Evidential transformer for pavement distress segmentation
Computer-Aided Civil and Infrastructure Engineering, 2023AbstractDistress segmentation assigns each pixel of a pavement image to one distress class or background, which provides a simplified representation for distress detection and measurement. Even though remarkably benefiting from deep learning, distress segmentation still faces the problems of poor calibration and multimodel fusion.

Horizontal Cracking and Pavement Distress in Portland Cement Concrete Pavement
Designing, Constructing, Maintaining, and Financing Today's Airport Projects, 2002This paper describes how severe spalling and half-depth punchout failures associated with horizontal cracks at the mid-depth of the concrete slabs were observed in continuously reinforced concrete pavement (CRCP) in Texas. A study was conducted to identify the causes of those horizontal cracks and their effect on pavement distress.

Automated Real-Time Pavement Distress Analysis
Transportation Research Record: Journal of the Transportation Research Board, 1999Pavement distress detection and analysis is an important component of pavement management systems. Conventional visual and manual pavement distress analysis techniques are very costly, time-consuming, dangerous, labor-intensive, tedious, and subjective; have a high degree of variability; are unable to provide meaningful quantitative information; and ...

Pavement distress detection and severity analysis
SPIE Proceedings, 2011Automatic recognition of road distresses has been an important research area since it reduces economic loses before cracks and potholes become too severe. Existing systems for automated pavement defect detection commonly require special devices such as lights, lasers, etc, which dramatically increase the cost and limit the system to certain ...
