Investigation of AASHTOWare Pavement ME Design/DARWin-MEPerformance Prediction Models for Iowa Pavement Analysis and Design [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The Mechanistic-Empirical Pavement Design Guide (MEPDG) was developed under National Cooperative Highway Research Program (NCHRP) Project 1-37A as a novel mechanistic-empirical procedure for the analysis and design of pavements.

Children's psychological traits and educational performance: How schools and residential areas moderate how individual traits translate into academic outcomes

open access: yesJCPP Advances, EarlyView.
Abstract Background The extent to which children's psychological traits influence their educational performance is thought to depend on the fit between the individual and their developmental context. However, this assumption has yet to be empirically tested on a population scale.

Accuracy of predictive models for dynamic modulus of hot-mix asphalt [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Various models have been developed over the past several decades to predict the dynamic modulus /E*/ of hot-mix asphalt (HMA) based on regression analysis of laboratory measurements.

Psychometric considerations of Adverse Childhood Experiences Questionnaire: Structure, validity, and the development of a supplementary instrument

open access: yesJournal of Traumatic Stress, EarlyView.
Abstract Adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) are linked to numerous negative physical and mental health outcomes. The current study addressed theoretical, conceptual, and measurement problems by evaluating a novel extension to the seminal ACEs questionnaire (ACEs‐Q).

Validation of the hdm models forcrack initiation and development, rutting and roughness of the pavement

open access: yesMATEC Web of Conferences, 2017
Worldwide practice recommends validation of the HDM models with some other software that can be used for comparison of the forecasting results. The program package MATLAB is used in this case, as it enables for modelling of all the HDM models.

Density‐dependent habitat selection in plains bison

open access: yesThe Journal of Wildlife Management, EarlyView.
Using GPS collar data, we tested whether habitat selection of plains bison in Grasslands National Park, Canada, was density dependent. Bison selected for areas of high vegetation productivity far from human activity when population density was low and increased use of lower productivity habitat closer to disturbance as density increased.

Calibration of the rutting model in HDM 4 on the highway network in Macedonia

open access: yesE3S Web of Conferences, 2018
The World Bank HDM 4 model is adopted in many countries worldwide. It is consisted of the developed models for almost all types of deformation on the pavement structures, but it can’t be used as it is developed everywhere in the world without proper ...

The Differential Impact of Emotional Support on Social Problem‐Solving and Mental Health Among Latina Immigrant Survivors of Adverse Childhood Experiences

open access: yesResearch in Nursing &Health, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) are often positively associated with mental health conditions. We examined whether emotional support attenuates the association between ACE clusters and both social problem solving and mental health assessments (depression, anxiety, post‐traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) symptoms).
