Temperature is one of the most significant parameters influencing heavy-duty machine tool
accuracy. In order to model the correlation between temperature field distribution and …

Flexible pavements are subjected to loading stresses and resulting strains dependent on the
existing environmental conditions. Distresses in the form of rutting and cracking occur in …

Owing to the increasing needs for robust highway pavement structural monitoring tools with
high accuracy and functionality, this paper introduces some results from the research on …

The use of sensors to monitor concealed cracks in asphalt pavement has become a
research topic of interest. In this paper, piezoelectric aggregates (PAs) were embedded into …

In the past half-century, the monitoring systems for traffic or infrastructure have been
developed a lot. Because of the interdependency between traffic and infrastructure …

The use of wireless sensors to monitor concealed damage to asphalt pavement has become
an important research topic. The main obstacle to wireless sensor applications is the …

The US Department of Transportation suggests a minimum thickness of 7 in (178 mm) to 8 in
(203 mm) for unbonded concrete overlay. Thinner overlays driven by economic advantages …

To investigate the potential of using dynamic distributed fibre optic sensing (DDFOS), a
series of slender and deep reinforced concrete beams were tested. The beams were loaded …

Fatigue damage is a notable distress of asphalt pavements. However, monitoring the
development process of such distresses in real-time remained challenges for researchers. In …
