Structural health assessment of pavement sections in the southern central United States using FWD parameters
نویسندگان
چکیده
Various Departments of Transportation in the South-Central States and elsewhere have made extensive use Non-Destructive Testing (NDT) surface deflection bowl data. The falling weight deflectometer (FWD) test is a popular NDT-based used by transportation authorities to evaluate performance flexible pavement. Nevertheless, it rare develop method for evaluating pavement sections using FWD data from all sensors. There constant demand DOTs highway agencies streamlined approach that can be applied directly their databases. This research focuses on extending verifying concept previously published area ratio parameters section (Arkansas, Louisiana, New Mexico, Oklahoma, Texas) order properly analyze performance. Simulation-based deflections are employed strengthen deflection-based minimize need lengthy field testing. Ninety-seven these states being investigated implementation validation simplified processes will widely accessible different assess problems at network level.

data envelopment analysis (dea) is a powerful tool for measuring relative efficiency of organizational units referred to as decision making units (dmus). in most cases dmus have network structures with internal linking activities. traditional dea models, however, consider dmus as black boxes with no regard to their linking activities and therefore do not provide decision makers with the reasons...
Evaluation of the Pavement Structural Condition at Network Level Using Falling Weight Deflectometer (fwd) Data
Large amounts of seal coats and thin overlays are applied every year by state highway agencies to improve the surface condition of pavements, but these measures have not successfully prevented the problem from reoccurring. As a result, the overall pavement condition keeps deteriorating because of the structural deformation of pavement layers and the subgrade. To make effective decisions about t...
