Usage of asphalt mixture with poor gradation will most likely lead to pavement deficiency.
There is a growing need for rapid and non-destructive methods to extract pavement …

Asphalt pavement construction requires accurate, rapid, and continuous quality evaluation.
As a primary defect appearing in construction, segregation significantly reduces the …

Skid resistance is an important parameter for highway designs, construction, management,
maintenance and safety. The purpose of this manuscript is to propose the correlation …

To supplement the research on the evaluation method of asphalt pavement texture, novel
three-dimensional (3D) methods are proposed. First, 18 different pavement textures were …

Runway skid resistance is crucial for the safety of aircrafts. Despite being internationally
regulated, investigation reports published by the Australian Transport Safety Bureau and the …

Road managers require convenient, inexpensive methods to quickly assess pavement
conditions over large areas. New imaging technologies potentially offer a substantial …

Surface segregation of bituminous mixtures is a criterion of pavement quality and largely
affects the characteristics of the pavement. Simple yet effective evaluation of the surface …

Two-and three-dimensional macrotexture characteristics of various surfaces were measured
using five different testing methods including sand patch method, laser profiler, laser texture …

Recent advances in technology allowed for the use of laser-based systems that can directly
measure macrotexture properties of various surfaces. Volumetric or sand patch method has …

Numerous efforts have been made in recent decades to determine segregation in asphalt
pavements. The visual inspection method is considered a basic and widely used method to …
