Field and Numerical Investigation of Pavement Vehicle Interaction Related Excess Fuel Consumption and Delamination

Creator:

Estaji, Mostafa

Abstract:

With ever-increasing number of vehicles actively using the state and national roadway network, transportation-related fuel consumption and consequent pavement structural damage rises. In this dissertation, the impact of material-induced dissipated energy mechanisms in asphalt and concrete pavements were analyzed using field measurements in California and finite element modeling of pavement...

Developing Performance-Based Specifications to Improve the Fatigue Life of Asphalt Pavements in Oregon

Creator:

Sreedhar, Shashwath

Abstract:

Asphalt concrete fatigue cracking is recognized as a major distress mode in the U.S. The widespread nature of this distress and the data from agency Pavement Management Systems (PMS) suggest that it is an issue with asphalt mixture design and production processes and is not a problem specific to certain...
