Degradation Modeling of Polyurea Pavement Markings
Polyurea is a long life pavement marking material used for assets requiring long periods of uninterrupted accessibility. Knowing the performance characteristics of such markings is critical to asset management planning focused on maximizing marking material life-cycles. This paper presents the performance characteristics of polyurea pavement markings in North Carolina using linear regression models. The models generated by this research provide pavement marking managers with tools to better allocate limited manpower and resources in order to optimize budgets while meeting newly proposed pavement marking retroreflectivity levels of service as proposed by the Federal Highway Administration. This research constructed performance models for polyurea based on the independent variables of time, initial retroreflectivity, and lateral line location. Using the models generated by this research, the pavement marking manager can predict the level of service and remaining life of a given pavement marking. A key finding of this paper is that polyurea pavement marking degradation is significantly impacted by the type of glass bead inserted into the marking.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.

Part Count
There are significantly different manufacturing processes and part counts associated with composites that are not currently addressed within the procurement and life cycle management processes in the Department of Defense (DoD). A series of initiatives have culminated in significant evidence over the last decade to combat the implied risk of composite aircraft. An Air Force Research Labs program, Advanced Composite Cargo Aircraft (ACCA), provides substantial support for the impact of part size on life cycle cost on payload aircraft. This paper evaluates select current methods used and seeks to introduce modifications to the projected manufacturing hours cost. The findings suggest the impact of monolithic parts appears to permeate most of the major cost categories in development and production.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.

Degradation Modeling of Polyurea Pavement Markings
Polyurea is a long life pavement marking material used for assets requiring long periods of uninterrupted accessibility. Knowing the performance characteristics of such markings is critical to asset management planning focused on maximizing marking material life-cycles. This paper presents the performance characteristics of polyurea pavement markings in North Carolina using linear regression models. The models generated by this research provide pavement marking managers with tools to better allocate limited manpower and resources in order to optimize budgets while meeting newly proposed pavement marking retroreflectivity levels of service as proposed by the Federal Highway Administration. This research constructed performance models for polyurea based on the independent variables of time, initial retroreflectivity, and lateral line location. Using the models generated by this research, the pavement marking manager can predict the level of service and remaining life of a given pavement marking. A key finding of this paper is that polyurea pavement marking degradation is significantly impacted by the type of glass bead inserted into the marking.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.

Civil Engineering Prime Beef Contingency Training
Air Force Doctrine Document (AFDD) 42, Civil Engineer doctrine, states the capability of a nation's Air Force is determined not only by the weapon system and weapon support system, but also by the basing system. The basing system includes infrastructure, people, materiel, and information needed to sustain the weapons system and the weapons support system. Thus, people, specifically the training proficiency of those people, is a critical element in determining the Air Force's capability. With the breakup of the Soviet Union and Warsaw Pact, the strategic environment has changed so dramatically the United States military is no longer facing a single enemy. Many individuals also consider the United States the worlds only remaining superpower. Thus, US military forces are being deployed with greater frequency to support operations short of war, known as Military Operations Other Than War (MOOTW). When determining the Air Force's capability to support operations across the full spectrum of conflict, from war to MOOTW, the training proficiency of those forces is important. Of vital concern is the training proficiency of Air Force Civil Engineer (AFCE) Prime Base Engineer Emergency Force (BEEF) personnel. This study attempts to answer three questions regarding training proficiency of AFCE Prime BEEF personnel.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.

Environmental Impacts of Airport Operations, Maintenance, and Expansion
Funding authorization for Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) programs set forth in the Vision 100 - Century of Aviation Reauthorization Act (P.L. 108-176, hereafter referred to as Vision 100) are set to expire at the end of FY2007. During the current reauthorization process, methods to address the environmental impacts associated with airport operations and expansion are likely to be debated. This issue is important to various stakeholders, particularly those whose health, property values, and quality of life may be affected by such impacts. The concerns of community members and local, state, and tribal agencies regarding environmental impacts have led to the delay and cancellation of some airport expansion projects.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.

Part Count
There are significantly different manufacturing processes and part counts associated with composites that are not currently addressed within the procurement and life cycle management processes in the Department of Defense (DoD). A series of initiatives have culminated in significant evidence over the last decade to combat the implied risk of composite aircraft. An Air Force Research Labs program, Advanced Composite Cargo Aircraft (ACCA), provides substantial support for the impact of part size on life cycle cost on payload aircraft. This paper evaluates select current methods used and seeks to introduce modifications to the projected manufacturing hours cost. The findings suggest the impact of monolithic parts appears to permeate most of the major cost categories in development and production.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
