Remaining Life Prediction of Asphalt Concrete Pavement under Dynamic Load

Abstract:

With the theory of M.W.Sayers, the pavement surface roughness was simulated by the sine curve. Through the Mat lab and VC + + program, the dynamic vehicle load caused by pavement surface roughness was analyzed and calculated. Given the dynamic road and environment factors and combined the test results of highway surface roughness, the deterioration law of pavement roughness were studied by amendment Shell permanent deformation theory. A new prediction method was put forward to predict the remaining life of asphalt concrete pavement, which was proved to be reasonable and reliable and can provide a valuable basis for the scientific decision-making of asphalt pavement management.
