... O-1 APPENDIX O VALIDATION OF ARTIFICIAL NEURAL NETWORK APPROACH FOR PREDICTING GEOSYNTHETIC-REINFORCED PAVEMENT PERFORMANCE The performance of geosynthetic-reinforced flexible pavements includes fatigue cracking, permanent deformation, and international roughness index (IRI)
From page 630...
... O-2 Figure O-1. Flow Chart of the Process of Validating the Proposed ANN Approach After a thorough review of the in-service pavement sections in the LTPP database and PMIS, a total of 74 pavement sections containing geosynthetics were found in the LTPP database, and a total of 51 pavement sections containing geosynthetics were found in the PMIS.

... O-3 of these identified pavement sections had the stabilized soil over the untreated subgrade, as illustrated in Figure O-2. Figure O-2.
From page 632...
... O-4 has beneficial effects for reducing the rutting and international roughness index of flexible pavements. Figure O-3.

... O-5 Figure O-5. Comparison of IRI between ANN Approach Prediction and Field Measurement for Pavement Section 16-9032 LTPP Section 48-0167 The pavement section 48-0167 consists of a 5.6-inch hot-mixed and dense-graded asphalt concrete, a 13-inch crushed gravel unbound base, a 12-inch lime-treated soil, and a semi-infinite subgrade sandy soil.
