    Keywords : Cracking; Crack propagation; Data collection methods; Image analysis; Image processing; LTPP; Automatic identification systems; Flexible pavement; PAVUE; Laser RST; measures; characterisation; x-ray computerised tomography; asphalt; 3D analysis; top-;

    Abstract : When cracking has propagated through the entire asphaltbound layers, water may ingress into the unbound layers andaccelerate the deterioration of the road structure. Knowledgeon where cracks initiate and how they propagate vertically istherefore of great practical importance. READ MORE

    Abstract : The roads in our society are in a state of constant degradation. The reasons for this are many, and therefore constructed to have a certain lifetime before being reconstructed. To minimize the cost of maintaining the important transport road network high quality prediction models are needed. READ MORE
