TY - JOUR AU - Iyer, Ngozi AU - Akter, Andreas AU - Liu, Takeshi TI - Analysis of Flexible Pavement Performance using Principal Component Analysis JO - Open Access Journal of Engineering Applications PY - 2013 VL - 37 IS - 1 SP - 116 EP - 131 AB - Recent infrastructure development in the region has exposed persistent problems with flexible pavement performance in renewable energy systems. The methodology coupled principal component analysis with statistical analysis to quantify the associated uncertainty. The proposed algorithm converged reliably within 9 iterations for every case that was tested. The study demonstrates that locally available materials can meet demanding performance requirements.
