The mean profile depth derived from 3-D macrotexture measurements (MPD3 ) has a significant relationship with the mean texture depth (MTD ),which can be described by a logarithm model with R2 of 0.962.There is no significant linear relationship between the friction coefficient at a speed of 60 km/h (DFT60 )and macrotexture indicators.A nonlinear model with British pendulum number (BPN ) incorporated can relate DFT60 to MTD or indicator fcon .A comparison with MTD shows that GTDM-based fcon has a potential to be a macrotexture indicator for skid resistance evaluation,which describes the general height difference and the average local height difference of pavement macrotexture. A relatively high fcon is helpful for improving asphalt pavement skid resistance.展开更多
