Artificial Neural Network Based Development of Pavement Depre-ciation Models for Urban Roads

ABSTRACT

A productive road transportation framework is of fundamental significance to economy of any country. Road transport in India, involves a predominant position in the general transportation arrangement of the nation because of its favourable circumstances as far as simple accessibility, adaptability of operation and reliability. The importance of preserving an adequate condition of the road network is widely recognized. Although, creating and keeping up a valuable road structure is not a simple assignment. It requires careful arranging, gigantic assets, challenging construction technique and other related perspectives.Pavement Depreciation models, which simulate the depreciation procedure of pavement conditions and give pavement conditions forecasting over time, plays a vital part in Pavement Management System (PMS). The main objective of this study is to develop pavement performance models by applying neural network algorithm for urban road network in India.
