Pavement Diagnosis as Integrant of the Pavement Management System [PDF]
Communications - Scientific letters of the University of Zilina, 2008 The paper integrates the most important scientific information of the authors in the field of diagnostics of road pavements. Basic attributes of pavement serviceability (evenness, skid resistance) and pavement bearing capacity are the core of the paper. The results of simulations of dynamic systems, outputs of the models developed at the authors place,

The effect of pavement-watering on subsurface pavement temperatures [PDF]
Urban Climate, 2015 Abstract Pavement-watering is currently viewed as a potential climate change adaptation and urban heat island mitigation technique. The effects of pavement-watering on pavement temperature measured 5 cm deep are presented and discussed. Subsurface temperature measurements could not be used to improve or optimize pavement-watering methods as was seen ...
