SYSTEM DYNAMICS FOR COMPLEX PROBLEMS IN PAVEMENT ENGINEERING (HB 2023) Hardcover

System Dynamics for Complex Problems in Pavement Engineering introduces a systems approach to addressing challenges in civil infrastructure, especially in pavement engineering. The book emphasizes the importance of understanding interdependencies within infrastructure systems, which is often overlooked in traditional civil and environmental engineering curricula. By focusing on system dynamics modeling and experimentation, it helps readers develop skills in learning, communicating, and researching complex, multidisciplinary issues. The book aims to foster an appreciation for systems thinking in modeling, analyzing, and proposing solutions to problems in pavement engineering, encouraging a more integrated approach to design, construction, and maintenance.
