1. Design of concrete pavements : design criteria for plain and lean concrete
Abstract : New road infrastructure projects are important and constitute of large investments that have to serve the society for a long time. The investments have to be durable at the lowest life cycle cost and the pavements have to sustain loads from increasing traffic intensity and heavy traffic loads. READ MORE

2. Concrete pavements’ repair techniques and numerical assessment of dowel bar load transfer efficiency
Abstract : Concrete pavements are a suitable alternative for high-traffic volume roads, concentrated loads and roads exposed to severe weather conditions. In Sweden, among other reasons, the scarcity of concrete pavements is attributed to the need for more national knowledge and expertise in the field. READ MORE

4. Prediction of permanent deformations in asphalt concrete using the mechanistic-empirical pavement design guide
Abstract : Permanent deformations, or rutting, are internationally considered to be one of the most serious distress mechanisms in asphalt pavements. Deterioration modeling is an important tool for performance prediction and diagnostics of pavements. READ MORE

5. Ice free roads using hydronic heating pavement with low temperature: Thermal properties of asphalt concretes and numerical simulations
Abstract : A traditional method to mitigate the slippery conditions of a road is to spread out salt and sand on the road surface. However, salting causes corrosion on the road infrastructures, damage to surrounding vegetation and salification of fresh water. Hence, there is a need for alternative solutions to mitigate the slippery conditions. READ MORE
