Invitation to a series of lectures on Innovative pavement design by Dr. Terhi Kristiina Pellinen
On 2-13 October a series of lectures will be held at Vilnius Gediminas Technical University (VGTU) by professor from Aalto University (Finland). Dr. Terhi Kristiina Pellinen is a professor of Highway Engineering at the Department of Civil Engineering at Aalto university, who worked more than 10 years in academic and private sector in the USA and he has been working for more than 15 years in Europe now.
The professor will give a series of lectures on Innovative pavement design. Innovative pavement design methods enable us to evaluate frost effect rationally and design pavement structures in optimal thickness, which ensures resistance to frost effect and requires the smallest amount of soils and natural aggregates. Factors affecting materials selection for road construction and effect of climate conditions and loading to pavement performance and durability will also be discussed during the series of lectures.
