Measuring and Analyzing Pavement Texture Concrete Pavement Surface Characteristics Program
Introduction Pavement texture is defined by the irregularities on a pavement surface that deviate from an ideal, perfectly flat surface. As shown in Figure 1, the World Road Association (PIARC) has established standard categories of texture, classified by wavelength. These categories include microtexture (wavelengths up to 0.5 mm), macrotexture (0.5 to 50 mm), megatexture (50 to 500 mm), and ro...
متن کاملPrinciples of sample size calculation
In most areas in life, it is difficult to work with populations and hence researchers work with samples. The calculation of the sample size needed depends on the data type and distribution. Elements include consideration of the alpha error, beta error, clinically meaningful difference, and the variability or standard deviation. The final number arrived at should be increased to include a safety...
متن کاملSample size calculation: Basic principles
Addressing a sample size is a practical issue that has to be solved during planning and designing stage of the study. The aim of any clinical research is to detect the actual difference between two groups (power) and to provide an estimate of the difference with a reasonable accuracy (precision). Hence, researchers should do a priori estimate of sample size well ahead, before conducting the stu...
متن کاملSample Size Calculation for Comparing Time-to-event Data
In clinical research, the occurrence of certain events (e.g., adverse events, disease progression, relapse, or death) is often of particular interest to the investigators, especially in the area of cancer trials. In most situations, these events are undesirable and unpreventable. In practice, it would be beneficial to patients if the test treatment could delay the occurrence of such events. As ...
متن کاملTechnology Overview on Validating 3D Transverse Profile Data and Measurement of Pavement Surface Distresses
With the advancement of 3D line laser imaging technology (“3D technology”, hereafter for the sake of brevity), high-resolution 3D transverse profile data (“3D data”, hereafter for the sake of brevity), has gained widespread interest from researchers, industry and highway agencies and has been used for collecting pavement surface distresses. However, the study of data characteristics, e.g. data ...
