Desert pavement is a distinctive feature widespread across arid lands of the world. It plays a dynamic role in geomorphic, hydrologic, and ecologic processes. Where desert pavement predominates, infiltration is limited and rainfall is delivered as runoff to nearby bare ground areas where shrubs cluster. Desert pavement surfaces may appear monotonously flat and barren, but we have found, instead...

The road pavement condition is a ected by various impacts such as trucks, deicing reagents, base erosion, etc. After some time on the road surface occur defects. Engineers are commonly used to collect pavement surface distress data, during periodic road surveys, but it takes a lot of time and manpower. In this paper, we present our automatic defects detection and classi cation on road pavement ...

Pavement evaluation is the most significant procedure to minimize degradation of pavement both functionally and structurally. Proper hence required prolong life year pavement, which thus needs be addressed in policy level. By this, development genuine indices are formulated used for evaluation. In context evaluating measuring roughness, International Roughness Index (IRI) used, whereas calculat...

Abstract The assessment of the texture airfield pavements, in addition to assessing their roughness, is a component broader concept anti-skid properties, which significantly affect safety air operations. roughness pavement directly affects adhesion aircraft tire pavement, and additionally effectiveness dynamic drainage water from pavement. current standard requirements terms pavements do not di...

The performance models used in the Mechanistic-Empirical Pavement Design Guide (MEPDG) are nationally calibrated with design inputs and performance data obtained primarily from the national Long-Term Pavement Performance database. It is necessary to verify and calibrate MEPDG performance models for local highway agencies' implementation by taking into account local materials, traffic informatio...
