¿Es liso? / What Is smooth? / by Martin, Emmett,author.(CARDINAL)826316; González Godino, Cecilia,traductor,translator.;
Understanding textures is a preliminary step in becoming an attentive observer of nature and the world around us. Comprehending textures, including smooth, is a standard of early elementary curricula. This attractive book explores the quality of smooth through achievable sentences and fun photographs of familiar objects perfectly matched to the text. Readers will be motivated to add "smooth" to their growing list of adjectives.

¿Es Rugoso? / What is bumpy? / by Martin, Emmett,author.(CARDINAL)826316; González Godino, Cecilia,traductor,translator.;
Many objects could be described as bumpy: roads, footballs, and even a toad's skin. Learning to describe objects and discern how they're different from or like other objects is an important part of the early elementary curriculum. This carefully written, at-level narrative demonstrates the use of the adjective bumpy, aided by colorful pictures to aid readers' comprehension of each accessible sentence.

Estimating the effects of pavement condition on vehicle operating costs / by Chatti, Karim.(CARDINAL)329240; Zaabar, Imen.(CARDINAL)604295; United States.Federal Highway Administration.(CARDINAL)139839; American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials.(CARDINAL)138446; National Cooperative Highway Research Program.(CARDINAL)281856; National Research Council (U.S.).Transportation Research Board.(CARDINAL)141287;
Includes bibliographical references (pages 60-61)."This report presents models for estimating the effects of pavement condition on vehicle operating costs. These models address fuel consumption, tire wear, and repair and maintenance costs and are presented as computational software on the accompanying CD-ROM to facilitate use"--Forward.Research sponsored by the American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials in cooperation with the Federal Highway Administration

Comparative performance measurement : pavement smoothness. by American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials.(CARDINAL)138446;
Includes bibliographical references (pages 53-54).Smooth pavement can reduce vehicle operating costs and is valued highly by both travelers and shippers. Because all states must report International Roughness Index data for their National Highway System roads, pavement smoothness is also an important performance measure for the State DOTs. This report identifies states that have achieved exemplary performance in achieving smooth pavements and documents their best practices. The second in a series of reports for the Subcommittee on Performance Measurement and Benchmarking of the Standing Committee on Quality, this report on measuring pavement smoothness is co-sponsored by the Subcommittee on Transportation Asset Management of the Standing Committee on Planning.

Methodology to improve pavement-investment decisions / by Papagiannakis, A. T.(CARDINAL)286970; Delwar, M.; American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials.(CARDINAL)138446; National Cooperative Highway Research Program.(CARDINAL)281856; National Research Council (U.S.).Transportation Research Board.(CARDINAL)141287;
Includes bibliographical references (pages 123-130).Data needs -- Development of a user-oriented pavement roughness index -- Data collection and analysis -- Software implementing user cost relationships -- Summary and implementation plan.Final report.The research reviewed literature on the relationships between user costs and pavement roughness, developed a new roughness index, and presented on a CD-ROM a method for conducting life-cycle cost analysis. However, the data needed to apply this method may not be readily available.Prepared for the National Cooperative Highway Research Program and sponsored by the American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials.
