2015 - Egypt - Pavement Maintenance Decision Model Using Artificial Neural Networks

Report describing two ANN-based maintenance decision models developed to recommend current and future pavement maintenance decisions based on MU system and MDM model, respectively. Results of this study reveal that artificial neural network is appropriate for implementation in recommending current and future flexible pavement maintenance decision. This is particularly promising for developing countries where such applications can play an effective role in offsetting the lack of decision tools, which is often apparent.
