Proposing New Advisory Speeds in Mountainous Areas Considering the Effect of Longitudinal Grades, Vehicle Characteristics, and the Weather Condition (Jul 2022, MPC-22-457)
Anas Alrejjal and Khaled Ksaibati

Speed limits play a pivotal role in traffic safety on mountainous roadways. Due to Wyoming's unique conditions, designing mountainous roadways with appropriate design speeds is challenging. These roadways are characterized by adverse weather conditions and tight horizontal curves with steep downgrades...

 
Assessment of Temperature Fluctuations in Asphalt Pavements Due to Thermal Environmental Conditions Using a Two-Dimensional Transient Finite Difference Approach (Oct 2002, MPC-02-136)
Khaled Ksaibati and Cenk Yavuzturk

Fluctuation in temperatures significantly affects pavement stability and the selection of asphalt grading to be used in pavements. Ability to accurately predict the asphalt pavement temperature at different depths and horizontal locations based on ambient air temperatures will greatly help pavement engineers...

 
Physical and Chemical Stability of Admixtures in Unpaved Road Soils (Mar 1996, MPC-96-52)
Arnold DeCastro, Thomas Edgar, David Foster, and Arthur Boresi

This project has investigated the performance of the admixtures during and after leaching has occurred. This report presents information in two main areas of investigation. The first is a soil column study to determine downward, one-dimensional solute transport properties and trends of the admixtures...
