A state-of-the-art review of measurement and modelling of skid resistance
The perspective of developing nation
A critical review of lab and field measurement methodologies, harmonization in measuring techniques, and modelling of skid resistance of asphalt concrete pavement have been provided. Although several past studies have provided literature review on general topics of skid resistanc

Skid resistance is known to be affected by environmental conditions such as ambient temperature and pavement temperature. Finite element (FE) modeling has been an effective and efficient way to study the effects of temperature on skid resistance. However, existing FE models eithe

Field calibration of Mechanistic-Empirical based models has practical limitations such as long testing times; high cost; uncontrolled environmental and traffic conditions. These factors have motivated engineers and researchers to use intermediary pavement evaluation techniques li

Safe highway operations are one of the major concerns of pavement engineers and authorities. The reduction of skid resistance during rainy weather poses high risk for safe driving. Wet skid resistance varies under different rainfall intensities and is influenced by many factors s

Braking distance is one of the basic standards for road design and maintenance practices. Adequate tire-pavement skid resistance plays a significant role in reducing braking distance and consequently enhancing road safety. Several studies have shown the effect that some parameter

The skid resistance of a pavement surface is an important characteristic that influences traffic safety. Previous studies have shown that skid resistance varies with temperature. However, relatively limited work has been carried out to study the effect of temperature on skid resi

With the increasing development of automated driving, particular attention has been paid towards pavement structures with smart monitoring systems. Recently, the strain of massive structures, such as pavements can be measured using Fiber Bragg Grating (FBG) devices, which proved

Any traction failure during high speed operations of automobiles may lead to fatal accidents. Therefore, it is very important to understand tire and pavement interaction. It is assumed that at high speed the hysteretic or bulk internal friction of tire predominantly accounts for
