Mechanistic modeling of roughness on continuously reinforced concrete pavement
(Texas A&M University, 1996)
Roughness can be termed as the irregularity on the surface of the road which is familiar to all the users of the road. A description of roughness and the database used in this effort are presented. The results of a laboratory ...
Evaluation of detector placement strategies for first generation traffic responsive signal control
(Texas A&M University, 1996)
Traffic responsive signal systems rely on system detector data to evaluate current traffic conditions and select a corresponding timing plan from a library of plans. One of the major decisions surrounding the use of traffic ...
Design and analysis of recycled content sign blanks
(Texas A&M University, 1996)
This report documents a study of the feasibility of using sign blanks constructed of reclaimed materials instead of conventional high-grade plywood and aluminum. This study presents the engineering techniques necessary for ...
Assessing vehicle detection utilizing video image processing technology
(Texas A&M University, 1996)
Urban freeways are the backbone of the highway transportation system and the demand on this system is growing. The increase in demand creates an increase in traffic congestion. Past construction solutions to relieve ...
Biodegradation of hexahydro-1,3,5-trinitro-1,3,5- triazine (RDX)
(Texas A&M University, 1996)

Comparasion of finite difference and finite element hydrodynamic models applied to the Laguna Madre Estuary, Texas
(Texas A&M University, 1996)
The U.S. Geological Survey Surface Water Flow and Transport Model in Two-Dimensions (SV*9FT2D) model was applied to the northern half of the Laguna Madre Estuary. SW=D is a two dimensional hydrodynamic and transport model ...
Effect of progression on capacity of interchange ramp weaving
(Texas A&M University, 1996)
Several traffic operational problems are routinely being experienced at one of the most critical elements in the highway system, i.e., grade-separated interchanges. A concern among many practicing engineers is arterial ...
Dynamic failure prediction of cross-rolled beryllium sheets subjected to vibration loads
(Texas A&M University, 1996)
The principal objective of this investigation is to develop and verify a numerical method for prediction of failure for cross-rolled beryllium sheet structures that are subjected to vibration loads. To this end, complementary ...
An investigation of driver behavior at highway-railroad grade crossings
(Texas A&M University, 1996)
Highway-railroad grade crossings are classified as either "active" or "passive" depending on the ability of the warning system to indicate the presence of an approaching train. Active crossings are characterized by warning ...
The usefulness of solid oxidants for biostimulation, determined by their kinetics and stoichiometry
(Texas A&M University, 1996)
The increased interest in in situ bioremediation has developed a commensurate increased interest in soil chemical amendments. These amendments increase the level of one or more limiting nutrients in the natural environment. ...
