1. Surface Wave Testing of Pavements
Sammanfattning : A novel approach for surface wave testing of pavements is presented. It is a non-destructive testing (NDT) technique that can be used to obtain the thickness and stiffness properties of the different layers in a pavement. LÄS MER
2. Application of Automated Non-contact Resonance Testing for Low Temperature Behavior of Asphalt Concrete
Sammanfattning : Impact resonance testing is a well-documented non-destructive testing method and its applications on asphalt concrete have also been implemented successfully. The test is carried out manually by inducing an impact in order to excite the test specimen and taking measurements of the vibrational response. LÄS MER
3. Air-coupled microphone measurements of guided waves in concrete plates
Sammanfattning : Quality control and quality assurance of pavements is today primarily based on core samples. Air void content and pavement thickness are parameters that are evaluated. However, no parameter connected to the stiffness is evaluated. LÄS MER
4. Non-contact surface wave measurements on pavements
Sammanfattning : In this thesis, nondestructive surface wave measurements are presented for characterization of dynamic modulus and layer thickness on different pavements and cement concrete slabs. Air-coupled microphones enable rapid data acquisition without physical contact with the pavement surface. LÄS MER
5. Reliability-based Design Procedure for Flexible Pavements
Sammanfattning : Load induced top-down fatigue cracking has been recognized recently as a major distress phenomenon in asphalt pavements. This failure mode has been observed in many parts of the world, and in some regions, it was found to be more prevalent and a primary cause of pavements failure. LÄS MER
