Flexible pavement responses to static loads are different from responses to dynamic loads. While a static analysis has to be performed for the long-term responses of pavement to applied loads, to examine the short-term responses, a dynamic analysis is necessary. Thus, in a dynamic analysis, the dynamic stiffness of material including both elastic stiffness and damping are taken into account. How they affect the fatigue life as compared to static loading of pavement especially when vehicles are moving at different speeds.
I think you need to do some literature revioew on this. The US and possibly other countries have equipment, mobile drop towers, for the purpose of measureing the dynamic stiffness and, possibly, damping. These data will need to be correlated with repair history and traffic numbers, light and heavy vehicles, temperature and climate, as well as road underlay and asphalt composition. Statistical analysis is a possible path.
Thank you very much Sir @ Prof. Anders Buen for your kind response. May I get any examples of statistical analysis regarding this
