  1. 1. Objective Assessment of Loose Gravel Condition using Machine Learning with Audio-visual Observation

    Författare :Nausheen Saeed; Moudud Alam; Roger G. Nyberg; Niklas Lavesson; Högskolan Dalarna; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Gravel road condition assessment; Loose gravel; Sound analysis; Machine learning; Image analysis; Audio analysis; Image and audio data fusion;

    Sammanfattning : A well-maintained road network is essential for sustainable economic development, providing vital transportation routes for goods and services while connecting communities. Sweden's public road network includes a significant portion of gravel roads, particularly cost-effective for less populated areas with lower traffic volumes. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Automated Gravel Road Condition Assessment : A Case Study of Assessing Loose Gravel using Audio Data

    Författare :Nausheen Saeed; Moudud Alam; Roger G. Nyberg; Diala Jomaa; Mirka Kans; Högskolan Dalarna; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Gravel roads; road maintenance; convolutional neural network CNN ; SVM; decision trees; ensemble bagged trees; GoogLeNet; ResNet50; ResNet18; sound analysis;

    Sammanfattning : Gravel roads connect sparse populations and provide highways for agriculture and the transport of forest goods. Gravel roads are an economical choice where traffic volume is low. In Sweden, 21% of all public roads are state-owned gravel roads, covering over 20,200 km. LÄS MER

  3. 3. A Life Cycle Approach to Environmental Sustainability in Aggregate Production Systems

    Författare :Christina Lee; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []

    Sammanfattning : Rock materials, such as sand, gravel, and crushed rock, serve as the foundation of our society. Known collectively as aggregates, these materials are essential for building foundations, concrete, and roads, making them the second most extracted material globally after water. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Evaluation of Dust Suppressants for Gravel Roads: Methods Development and Efficiency Studies

    Författare :Karin Oscarsson; Högskolan Dalarna; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Gravel road; dust; particulate matter; PM10; horizontal dust diffusion; deteriorations; maintenance; dust control; dust suppressants; efficiency; application rate; leaching; residual concentration; seasonal variations; salt solution; solid salt; calcium chloride; magnesium chloride; lignosulphonate; polysaccharide sugar ; bitumen emulsion; rape oil; starch; surfactant; mesa; clay; fine material content.; Complex Systems – Microdata Analysis; Komplexa system - mikrodataanalys;

    Sammanfattning : Application of the proper dust suppressant to a gravel road ensures road safety and riding comfort as well as creating a cleaner and healthier environment for residents in buildings adjacent to the road. It also reduces the need and cost for vehicle repair, road maintenance activities, and aggregate supplementation. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Physical characterization of coarse clasts with 3D image-analysis method : development, evaluation and application

    Författare :Solomon Tafesse; Joanne Fernlund; Mark Johnson; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :3D image analysis; Particle angularity; Sieve analysis; Particle form; Gravel analysis; Repeatability; Lithological distribution;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis presents a novel three dimensional (3D) image-analysis method for characterizing the physical characteristics of coarse particles in the field, and introduces new methodology for the total analysis of glacial till samples.The novel image analysis method, called the GID method, is capable of determining the size, shape and surface texture of each individual clast analysed.
