Abstract
One of the most common pavement distresses in flexible pavement is rutting, which is mainly caused by heavy wheel load and various other factors. The prediction of rutting depth is important for safe travel and the long-term performance of pavements. Factors that are considered in this paper for the prediction of rut depth are Temperature, Equivalent Single Axle Load, Resilient modulus, and Thickness of hot mixed asphalt. The input data for all factors are collected from the Long-Term Pavement Performance Information Management System for the state of Texas. Regression analysis is performed for dependent and independent variables to obtain the empirical relationship. In various fields of civil engineering, artificial neural networks have recently been utilized to model the qualities and behavior of materials and to determine the complicated relationship between various properties. An Artificial Neural Network is used to develop a predictive model to predict the rutting depth. A total number of 70 observations were considered for the predictive model. A mathematical relation is developed and verified between rut depth and variable input data.
