A backcalculation procedure is commonly used to estimate the pavement layer moduli based on the non-destructive falling weight deflectometer (FWD) tests.
The cohesion properties of bituminous mastics depend upon the fillers used, and, therefore, so do the effective strength of asphalt concrete and the durability of the pavement layer.
In this study, an inverse analysis procedure that combines the finite element analysis and a population-based optimization technique, Genetic Algorithm (GA) has been developed to determine the pavement layer structural properties.
Once the intermittent hydrodynamic load and swash caused any deformation (bump or dent) of the pavement layer, pavement fractions (slabs or rubble) on the slope started to be initiated and removed by the water.
Results demonstrate the superiority of this method in terms of higher accuracy, achieving nearer to global solutions, better computational speed, and robustness in predicting the pavement layer moduli over the conventional methods.
The engineering consulting firm developed a pavement design that included the pavement layer thicknesses to carry the wind turbine components and construction materials.

Major factors that influence the design of paved and unpaved roads are the strength and stiffness of the pavement layers.
To achieve proper bonding between the pavement layers it is necessary to spread the precise amount of tack coat.
Since the pavement layers are in direct contact with the environment, their durability characteristics are considered as an important issue.
In recent years, there is a sway towards mechanistic design of pavements, which requires the mechanical properties of all the materials being used in the pavement layers.
