Published in 2025 at "International Journal of Pavement Engineering"

DOI: 10.1080/10298436.2025.2503392

Abstract: ABSTRACT Local weather conditions give rise to temperature distributions within Jointed Plain Concrete Pavements (JPCPs). Previous research has demonstrated that these temperature distributions are non-linear, leading to the development of curling and eigenstresses. In India… read more here.
