Abstract Weigh-in-motion (WIM) sensors allow the control of vehicle weights without
disruption of traffic. WIM systems bring very important savings by traffic monitoring and by …

This study aims at designing and developing a new technique to harvest solar energy from
asphalt pavements. The proposed energy harvester system consists of a pavement solar …

Heavy traffic loading can produce loss of functionality in pipeline networks, with
consequential interference with economic and social impacts in the areas involved in …

Pavement design assumes uniform contact loading because of bottom-up traditional
cracking (far from loading), but nowadays more and more surface damage (top-down …

The effective tire-pavement contact area affects the relative damage of asphalt pavement
and should be incorporated in both mechanistic and empirical response analyses of …

The conventional flexible pavements have been constructed such that the stiffness of the
layer reduces with depth. The crust thickness becomes significantly high for heavy traffic …

In the conventional pavement design procedure using multilayer elastic theory, tire loading
equal to tire inflation pressure and traditional circular contact area are assumed. Therefore …

An energy harvester in the road pavement made from a piezoelectric composite plate is
designed and studied to collect energy from the passing vehicles for the ice melting aim …

In recent years, overinflated tyre pressure and the effect of increased heavy vehiclesaxle
load on flexible pavements responses have become a subject of great concern because of …

Inverted pavements with stiff base are one of the engineered solutions to reduce the
thickness of the pavement structure in relation to a conventional pavement. In this study, 3D …
