The performance of the subgrade towards the main deterioration mechanisms must be considered in the pavement structure design. Thus, this paper discusses the resilient modulus and permanent ...

Geocells have been successfully used to stabilize granular bases for unpaved roads over weak subgrade subjected to traffic loading. Unfortunately, no well-accepted design method is available in the ...

Johns Hopkins engineers have uncovered new details about how granular materials such as sand and rock behave under extreme impacts—findings that could someday help protect the Earth from dangerous ...

Mansour Solaimanian receives funding from Pennsylvania Department of Transportation. In the past has received research funding from Federal Highway Administration and Wisconsin Department of ...

Hussein Mohammed does not work for, consult, own shares in or receive funding from any company or organization that would benefit from this article, and has disclosed no relevant affiliations beyond ...

The considerations involved and the methodologies to be adopted for sub-grade improvement are described here. The engineering process to overcome the problems presented by poor ground areas is ...

A team of researchers from the University of Technology Sydney, Australia, has created a new "intelligent compaction" technology that can be incorporated into road rollers and offer real-time ...

Researchers have developed a new machine-learning technique that applies the Goldilocks principle to road compaction quality. Researchers have developed new "intelligent compaction" technology, which ...

Researchers have developed new “intelligent compaction” technology, which integrates into a road roller and can assess in real-time the quality of road base compaction. Improved road construction can ...
