Title: Analyses of moving dynamic loads on highway pavements: Part II - Pavement response
Abstract: Current models of vehicle-pavement interaction employ simplified models of vehicle loading, such as static or pseudo-moving loads. However, instantaneous dynamic vehicle loads may be considerably higher than static loads (1,2), and thus dynamic loading can have a considerably impact on pavement performance (3). Current models cannot account for this effect. The prediction of pavement deterioration and seviceability under dynamic vehicle loading becomes particularly important when pavement design and analysis methods must be extended to encompass expanding vehicle and pavement technology. The purpose of this paper is to develop a generalized methodology to analyze pavement responses to moving, dynamic vehicle loads, which may be used to predict pavement performance.
