Data Compression Approach for Long-Term Monitoring of Pavement Structures (2019)
Journal Article
Manosalvas-Paredes, M., Lajnef, N., Chatti, K., Aono, K., Blanc, J., Thom, N., …Lo Presti, D. (2019). Data Compression Approach for Long-Term Monitoring of Pavement Structures. Infrastructures, 5, Article 1. https://doi.org/10.3390/infrastructures5010001

Pavement structures are designed to withstand continuous damage during their design life. Damage starts as soon as the pavement is open to traffic and increases with time. If maintenance activities are not considered in the initial design or consider... Read More about Data Compression Approach for Long-Term Monitoring of Pavement Structures.

Strategies for reduced cooling time of asphalt for airfield pavement overlay (2019)
Conference Proceeding
Rahman, T., Thom, N., & Dawson, A. (2019). Strategies for reduced cooling time of asphalt for airfield pavement overlay. https://doi.org/10.1061/9780784482476.026

Reducing the cooling period of newly laid asphalt overlays could help airport authorities to quickly open remediated pavements to traffic. This paper reviews four strategies for a reduced cooling period, prior to trafficking, of newly-placed asphalt...

Behaviour of rubberised cement-bound aggregate mixtures containing different stabilisation levels under static and cyclic flexural loading (2019)
Journal Article
Farhan, A. H., Dawson, A., & Thom, N. (2019). Behaviour of rubberised cement-bound aggregate mixtures containing different stabilisation levels under static and cyclic flexural loading. Road Materials and Pavement Design, 21(8), 1-20. https://doi.org/10.1080/14680629.2019.1605924

An investigation has been undertaken to investigate the influence of rubber inclusion at different levels of stabilisation on the behaviour of cemented granular mixtures, under static and cyclic flexural testing, and to compare this with mixtures wit...

Probabilistic prediction of asphalt pavement performance (2019)
Journal Article
Abed, A., Thom, N., & Neves, L. (2019). Probabilistic prediction of asphalt pavement performance. Road Materials and Pavement Design, 20( Sup 1), S247-S264. https://doi.org/10.1080/14680629.2019.1593229

Variability of pavement design parameters has always been a concern to pavement designers and highway agencies. A robust pavement design should take into account the variability of the design inputs and its impact on the reliability of the design. In...

Development of compression pull-off test (CPOT) to assess bond strength of bitumen (2019)
Journal Article
Rahim, A., Thom, N., & Airey, G. (2019). Development of compression pull-off test (CPOT) to assess bond strength of bitumen. Construction and Building Materials, 207, 412-421. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.conbuildmat.2019.02.093

The quantification of moisture susceptibility has been a major concern for researchers as it adversely affects the performance of asphalt pavements. Several methods have been developed to assess bond strength using asphalt mixtures in loose and compa...
