With the aging of roads and the lack of resources for maintenance, a thorough
understanding of the interaction between tires and asphalt pavements is crucial to optimize …

The selection of accurate input design parameters is important for understanding the
dynamic response of an asphalt pavement structure. The transverse and longitudinal shear …

Raveling, or the loss of surface aggregate, is a major concern in chip seal pavement.
Previous studies have used the Standard Sweep, Vialit, and Pennsylvania tests to evaluate …

This article presents the latest progress in research on tire–pavement contact behavior.
Firstly, the tire–pavement contact characteristics and their influencing factors are …

Tyre-pavement contact behaviour is one of the core issues in pavement engineering. In this
study, the tyre-pavement contact behaviour was investigated in full-scale tests. The …

This paper's purpose is the contact of a rolling body on a viscoelastic multi-layered half-
space. Firstly, the contact is formulated with the classical definition of the gap and the …

The comprehensive understanding of the mechanistic behavior of airport pavements under
aircraft landing loads is essential for ensuring safety and durability. Addressing the limited …

Most countries adopt the mechanical theory of a layered elastic system under vertical load
as the design method for asphalt pavement. This calculation theory does not consider the …

Adequate monitoring and timely treatment of partial-depth, surface-initiated cracks are
essential in order to prolong the life cycle of pavement structures. Therefore, methodologies …

This paper aims to evaluate the surface cracking phenomenon on a flexible pavement
subjected to diverse vehicle running conditions. Top-down cracking initiation is addressed …
