2015 - USA - Effect of Pavement-Vehicle Interaction on Highway Fuel Consumption and Emission

Vehicle fuel consumption and emission are two important effectiveness
measurements of sustainable transportation development. Pavement plays an essential
role in goals of fuel economy improvement and greenhouse gas (GHG) emission
reduction. The main objective of this dissertation study is to experimentally investigate
the effect of pavement-vehicle interaction (PVI) on vehicle fuel consumption under
highway driving conditions. The goal is to provide a better understanding on the role of
pavement in the green transportation initiates.
