In the Mechanistic–Empirical Pavement Design Guide (MEPDG), dynamic modulus of asphalt mixes is used as one of the input parameters in pavement analysis and design. For in-service pavements, MEPDG method uses a combination of some field and laboratory tests for structural evaluation of asphalt layers in rehabilitation projects. In this study, ten new and rehabilitated in-service asphalt pavemen...

In computer graphics and geometric modeling one generally faces the problem to integrate a variety of curve and surface types into a single program. Object-oriented design ooers the opportunity to use the inherent hierarchical structure of curves and surfaces to solve this problem. This paper presents an object-oriented framework together with its C++ implementation that starts from an abstract...

In this paper it is attempted to predict the off-design performance of a jet engine. After a review of the governing equations, the off-design performance is investigated by two methods. In the first method, the component characteristic curves of the Gas Turbines are used. In the second method some design point parameters and the reference state conditions are employed. The results obtained by ...
