contents Pavement surface textures obtained by a photogrammetry-based method for data acquisition and analysis are employed to investigate if related roughness descriptors are comparable to the frictional performance evaluated by finite element analysis. Pavement surface profiles are obtained from 3D digital surface models created with Close-Range Orthogonal Photogrammetry. To characterize the roughness features of analyzed profiles, selected texture parameters were calculated from the profile's geometry. The parameters values were compared to the frictional performance obtained by numerical simulations. Contact simulations are performed according to a dedicated finite element scheme where surface roughness is directly embedded into a special class of interface finite elements. Simulations were performed for different case scenarios and the obtained results showed a notable trend between roughness descriptors and friction performance, indicating a promising potential for this numerical method to be consistently employed to predict the frictional properties of actual pavement surface profiles.
