Interests:
Dr.
Haider's research interests are in the area of pavement material
characterization, performance modeling, management, and rehabilitation.
His current research has been focused on (i) the mechanistic
characterization of recycled asphalt mixtures, (ii) the rehological
properties of aged and virgin binders, (iii) the statistical
modeling of axle load spectra for mechanistic-empirical pavement
design, (iv) the implementation of Superpave asphalt binder
and mixture specifications, (v) the effectiveness of pavement
preservation treatments, (vi) the effects of non-liner damage
accumulation on pavement performance, (vii) the use of advance/efficient
statistical techniques in modeling pavement performance, and
(viii) the calibration of performance models in mechanistic-empirical
pavement design.
