Equilibrium moisture beneath highway pavements is a critical parameter that affects the
strength and stiffness of pavement systems and controls the pavement design. The soil …

The main objective of this study is to develop a practical and implementable numerical
model for predicting the moisture (suction) regime within the pavement subgrade system …

The stability of the pavement system on old Ogbomoso-Ilorin road in southwestern Nigeria
basement complex was investigated. This was carried out by estimating the suction, degree …

Abstract The Enhanced Integrated Climate Model (EICM) is incorporated into the
Mechanistic Empirical Pavement Design Guide (MEPDG) to account for the influence of the …

The moisture condition in the pavement subgrade is critical because it directly affects the
strength and stiffness of the pavement structure. Subgrade soils are usually unsaturated …

The Thornthwaite moisture index (TMI), a climatic parameter, is widely used in geotechnical
engineering as well as other disciplines to evaluate the changes in moisture conditions in …
