Using NDT Data to Assess the Effect of Pavement Thickness Variability on Ride Quality
Remote Sensing, 2023 Pavement condition largely determines its long-term behavior and is of paramount importance for rehabilitation and maintenance management. The use of non-destructive testing (NDT) systems to assess pavement condition has gained much popularity.

Integrating Pavement Sensing Data for Pavement Condition Evaluation
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.

Assessment of Risky Cornering on a Horizontal Road Curve by Improving Vehicle Suspension Performance
The Baltic Journal of Road and Bridge Engineering, 2021 Vehicle stability during cornering on horizontal road curves is a risky stage of travel because of additional factors acting. The main stability factor is centrifugal force, which depends on road curve sharpness and is very sensitive to driving speed ...

Rough thin pavement thickness estimation by GPR [PDF]
2009 IEEE International Geoscience and Remote Sensing Symposium, 2009 In civil engineering, usually the methods used to estimate the thickness of thin pavements consider flat interfaces for simplification. In this paper, the roughness of the surfaces is taken into account. First, the amplitudes of the first two echoes from the rough thin pavement are calculated from a rigorous electromagnetic method, the PILE method.

Application of Adaptive Neuro–Fuzzy Inference System for Forecasting Pavement Roughness in Laos
Coatings, 2022 Laos Pavement Management System (PMS) manages 7700 km of National Roads (NRs) and estimates their Maintenance and Rehabilitation (MR) needs based on assessing pavement roughness conditions. This research aims to develop two International Roughness Index (

Bridge roughness index as an indicator of bridge dynamic amplification [PDF]
, 2006 The concept of a road roughness index for bridge dynamics is developed. The International Roughness Index (IRI) is shown to be very poorly correlated with bridge dynamic amplification as it takes no account of the location of individual road surface ...
