A finite element method for the performance analysis of flexible pavements
(1988)
The purpose of this study is to present a computer program, named FEPASS, to predict the performance of asphaltic concrete pavements. Methods have been developed that predict the rutting, the fatigue cracking, and the slope ...
The effects of environment, materials and quality control on the physical properties of concrete
(1988)
In order to improve the current design and construction guidelines for a continuously reinforced concrete pavement (CRCP) that is maintenance free for at least 20 years, an extensive literature review and laboratory ...
Transfer of a lecture notetaking skill
(1988)
The purpose of this study was to find out: (a) whether college students would learn a notetaking procedure in learning strategies class, and then use the procedure in subject matter courses, and (b) whether one of two ...
Evaluation of healing and constitutive modeling of asphalt concrete by means of the theory of nonlinear viscoelasticity and damage mechanics
(1988)
It has been proved by many researchers that existing fatigue failure criteria based on constant amplitude loading tests underpredict the fatigue life of asphalt concrete pavements. Unrealistic loading conditions in laboratory ...
Computer-assisted assessment of reading comprehension with Hispanic fourth grade pupils
(1988)
The purpose of this study was to investigate the role of language and academic competency as mediators of Hispanic pupils' reading behavior and perception. Separate groups of Hispanic fourth grade pupils with differing ...
Modeling spatial variability of localized lumber properties
(1988)
The primary objective of this research was to develop stochastic models of localized modulus of elasticity (MOE) and tensile strength (T) for laminating lumber. Detailed information on the variability of localized MOE and ...
