Models designed to predict when and how the roads of Bizkaia will deteriorate
(PHYSorg.com Mathematics)

A researcher at the UPV/EHU`s Faculty of Engineering-Bilbao has developed behaviour models of the international roughness index (IRI) and the coefficient of transverse friction to predict the future situation of the highway network of Bizkaia. The models provide the chance to predict highway repairs, to consider the type of repairs that need to be carried out and to optimize budget allocations.
