报告内容简介：

The Industry 4.0 revolution marks a significant transformation in pavement technology, underscoring the integration of digital and physical systems to innovate traditional, empirical-based pavement design, construction, and maintenance practices. This transition promises enhanced efficiency, sustainability, and the adoption of integrated practices, epitomized by implementing "Digital Twin" technology. Drawing on insights from the Australian Research Council (ARC)'s Industry Transformation Research Hub for Smart Next Generation Transport Pavements (SPARC Hub), this presentation delves into the comprehensive integration of pavement testing, design, construction, condition assessment, and asset management within the lifecycle of unbound road pavements with thin asphalt seals. The focus is on how this technological amalgamation streamlines decision-making processes and significantly enhances the functionality and durability of pavement infrastructures.

The presentation will also explore future research directions to overcome implementation barriers, explore untapped technological potentials, and evaluate the sustainability benefits of digital approaches in pavement engineering. Furthermore, it will address how incorporating climate effects into pavement design can further enhance resilience and adaptability, ensuring that our infrastructure meets the challenges of changing environmental conditions. By leveraging advanced technologies and data-driven insights, we aim to revolutionize pavement engineering, paving the way for more resilient, sustainable, and efficient road networks.

报告人简历：

Jayantha Kodikara教授是莫纳什大学土木工程学院智能新一代交通路面SPARC（www.sparchub.org.au）中心的主任。同时，他还领导莫纳什管道研究小组。他已发表超过500篇涉及多个领域的学术论文，并指导了50多位博士生毕业。他是澳大利亚的注册专业工程师，同时也是澳大利亚工程师学会院士。他的基础研究促成了MPK (Monash-Peradeniya-Kodikara)框架和模型的开发，这一框架为非饱和压实土的建模提供了一种全新的方法，并揭示了传统压实曲线与先进非饱和土模型之间的直接联系。他在应用研究领域作出的开创性贡献包括阐释埋地水管的破坏和退化机制，这些研究成果已引领全球管道资产管理的变革式转变。他因其在创新和行业合作方面的成就，荣获多个奖项，包括2016年的国家与国际水协会奖、2016年的B/HERT奖、2019年的ARRB影响奖，以及2013年和2019年莫纳什大学校长及院长的创新与企业奖。
