Mechanistic-Empirical Asphalt Pavement Design Considering the Effect of Seasonal Temperature Variations

open access: yesArchives of Civil Engineering, 2016
The paper analyses the influence of seasonal temperature variations on fatigue strength of flexible and semi-rigid pavement structures chosen for KR4 traffic flow category. The durability of pavement determined assuming a yearly equivalent temperature of

Exploring haptic interfacing with a mobile robot without visual feedback [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Search and rescue scenarios are often complicated by low or no visibility conditions. The lack of visual feedback hampers orientation and causes significant stress for human rescue workers. The Guardians project [1] pioneered a group of autonomous mobile

Structural layer applicability of semi-flexible material for rutting resistance: A coupled temperature-mechanical approach.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2023
Semi-flexible material (SFM) is produced by pouring cement grouting material into the asphalt concrete skeleton. It exhibits both characteristics of cement and asphalt, increasing structural stiffness and reducing rutting.

Characterizing the Mechanical Properties of Cementitious Emulsion Grout for Semi-Flexible Mixture [PDF]

open access: yesE3S Web of Conferences, 2021
Grout is a cement-based material with high strength and workability that allowing it to be injected into small cracks or leaky areas. It is usually used to patch concrete cracks or holes, but it may also be used to fill voids under metal bases or digging

Optimal pavement management: Resilient roads in support of emergency response of cyclone affected coastal areas [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Roads in poor road condition disrupt emergency operations in disaster-prone areas during emergency periods. Prolonged inundation of pavements from storm surge accelerates deterioration of pavements and increases maintenance cost.

Complexity of the behaviour of asphalt materials in cyclic testing [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
This paper compares the results obtained in two types of cyclic tension-compression tests, a time sweep test, constant strain amplitude, and a strain sweep test, increasing strain amplitude every 5000 cycles, called EBADE (standing for the Spanish words ...

Semi-Flexible Pavement Structure Analysis Based on Double Modulus Theory

open access: yesZhongwai Gonglu
Semi-flexible pavement materials have significant differences in tension and compression. If the mechanical response analysis of pavement structures is conducted by using the traditional linear elastic theory with a single modulus, there will be a ...
