Abstract:
One of the major challenges that state highway agencies face is the need to estimate performance curves for different functional classifications of highways and traffic loads, considering the limitations of resources and equipment required for data collection and management activities. The need to estimate the remaining useful life of pavements in different climatic regions with a variety of subgrade conditions is crucial for the efficient allocation of maintenance and rehabilitation funds. A methodology that addresses both the performance and regional climatic aspects is presented. Essential

A system dynamics model was developed for the forecasting, prioritization, and distribution of critical supplies during relief operations in case of a hurricane event, while integrating GIS information. Data was obtained from operational reports gathered during Hurricane George from agencies such as: Puerto Rico Department of Housing (PRDOH), Puerto Rico National Guard (PRNG), Civil Defense State Agency of Puerto Rico, Puerto Rico Department of Transportation and Public Works (PRDOTPW) and Puerto Rico Highway & Transportation Authority (PRHTA), along with reports from other U.S. agencies.

Abstract:
The road diet concept has been implemented around the United States for more than three decades. Road diets are at the early stages of implementation in Puerto Rico and the use of a Two-Way Left Turn Lane (TWLTL) will be a new and unfamiliar design for local drivers. For this reason, the effectiveness of a TWLTL was evaluated using a driving simulator with local drivers for a segment of highway PR-107 in Puerto Rico. This highway is a suburban commercial corridor without access control that had a 67% increase in crashes between 2015 and 2016. This highway was selected because of its large numb

Abstract:
Puerto Rico is an uncomfortable reminder of the democratic deficits within the world’s oldest constitutional democracy. Puerto Ricans are U.S. citizens who live in a U.S. territory that is subject to the plenary authority of Congress, to which they cannot elect voting members. In 2022, under unified Democratic control for the first time in a decade, Congress considered the Puerto Rico Status Act, legislation that would finally decolonize Puerto Rico. The Status Act offered Puerto Rican voters three alternatives to the colonial status quo—statehood, independence, or sovereignty in free associat

The Paso del Indio site, discovered and partially mitigated in the midst of a major highway construction project, is the largest and deepest stratified, multi-component prehistoric site found to date on the island of Puerto Rico, and likely the entire Greater Antilles. The site exhibits a number of cultural occupation levels, separated by the deposition of sterile soil levels. This circumstance created a stratigraphic sequence of thousands of years of occupation, over 5 meters deep, representing the four prehistoric culture history periods known for Puerto Rico, as defined in the 1950s.

Abstract:
Puerto Rico experienced the most prolonged power outage in US history after two hurricanes hit the Archipelago in September 2017. Hurricane Irma left over one million people without electricity, and Hurricane Maria left Puerto Rico in a total blackout when it hit. The damages to 80 percent of the electrical grid opened the possibility to the Puerto Rico Electric Power Authority to explore options beyond merely reconstructing and keeping the grid centralized. Prior to these events, an active public discussion on how to transform the electrical system had been occurring regarding a new energy po

Bringing together these two approaches to translation history, this article

Abstract This essay investigates the political workings of gratitude in Puerto Rico in the postabolition decades in order to uncover how these practices of benevolence, which obscure the violence of everyday marginalization, became key in liberal political forms as a means of rearticulating white superiority and patriarchal authority. The article analyzes the practice of gratitude that liberal elites demanded from former slaves after emancipation as well as the appropriation of and challenges to such practices by laborers.

It compares the experiences of Puerto Rican and Filipino laborers using the concept of U.S. colonialism, which highlights the liminal and subordinate political-legal status of multiple groups who have come under direct U.S. authority. It also explores the in-between political-legal statuses of work migrants in relation to issues of citizenship, migration, and labor. T

Chapter 3 argues that the construction of the island’s first cement plant was one of the most significant public works projects of the Puerto Rican New Deal. Built by PRRA engineers between 1936 and 1938, ownership of the Cataño cement plant was transferred to the local government and run by an independent public authority. This chapter examines how locally produced cement was central to the PRRA’s urbanization plans, including its controversial “swamp drainage” and “slum clearance” programs, through which PRRA engineers sought to remove residents from improvised houses in the island’s periphe

Abstract:
‘The doldrums and the new navy (1865–1900)’ describes the period after the end of the Civil War: an era of swift retrenchment with little forward progress. When the Civil War ended, the U.S. Navy boasted 671 warships, yet within a decade, all but a few dozen had been sold off, scrapped, or placed in ordinary—mothballed for a future crisis. The concept of a peacetime standing navy was finally embraced with Congressional approval for new battleships in 1890. The war with Spain in 1898 also resulted in the United States assuming significant authority on Cuba and gaining control of the Philippines

Abstract This chapter addresses the baroque, which employs symmetry in its expression of order, control, and majesty, although symmetry is not necessary for expressions of grandeur. The baroque strategy of a strong central axis focuses attention on a singular idea, ranging from collective social life to a singular dominant authority. In baroque pattern and form, space is vast but controlled. In the 17th century, this coincided with new monarchical authority. Meanwhile, American civic improvements of the 1890s employed the baroque to reflect the sense of superiority and economic militarism that
