• Education:
  • B.S. Civil Engineering, LSU (1980)
  • M.S. Civil Engineering, LSU (1982)
  • Ph.D. Civil Engineering, LSU (1989)

Research Interests: His work focuses on highway construction materials, pavement engineering, accelerated pavement testing, advanced materials characterization and modeling, and infrastructure sustainability. Key areas include asphalt mixture design, intelligent compaction, moisture susceptibility, and recycling of materials like crumb rubber and plastics for pavement applications.

Article Trends: His 2025 publications emphasize asphalt mixture durability, moisture resistance, and sustainability, with studies on polymer/epoxy modified binders, SCB test protocols, and environmental impact integration. Recent works also explore self-healing materials and high-recycled-content mixes.
