Comparative Analysis in Sensitivity of Cumulative Fatigue Damage of Mechanistic-Empirical Concrete Pavement Design Programs

Sensitivity analysis frameworks for mechanistic-empirical pavement design of continuously reinforced concrete pavements

The new AASHTO Mechanistic-Empirical Pavement Design Guide (MEPDG) performance predictions for the anticipated climatic and traffic conditions depend on the values of the numerous input parameters that characterize the pavement materials, layers, design features, and condition. This paper proposes comprehensive local sensitivity analyses (LSA) and global sensitivity analyses (GSA) methodologies...

Global Sensitivity Analysis of Jointed Plain Concrete Pavement Mechanistic-Empirical Performance Predictions

The new AASHTO Mechanistic-Empirical Pavement Design Guide (MEPDG) provides pavement analysis and performance predictions for various what-if scenarios. MEPDG performance predictions for anticipated climatic and traffic conditions will depend on the values of the input parameters that characterize pavement materials, layers, design features, and condition. A comprehensive global sensitivity ana...

Sensitivity quantification of jointed plain concrete pavement mechanistic-empirical performance predictions

Sensitivity analysis of rigid pavement systems using the mechanistic-empirical design guide software

Initiatives are underway to implement the new Mechanistic-Empirical Pavement Design Guide (MEPDG) in Iowa. This paper focuses on the sensitivity study of Jointed Plain Concrete Pavements (JPCP) and Continuously Reinforced Concrete Pavements (CRCP) in Iowa using the MEPDG software. In this comprehensive study, the effect of MEPDG input parameters on the rigid pavement performance is evaluated us...
