Eleventh International Conference on the Bearing Capacity of Roads, Railways and Airfields (ePub)

Inge Hoff started his research career in the independent research organization SINTEF (Norway) doing contracted research projects for 10 years. Most of the projects were laboratory-based projects on materials for pavement construction. Dr. Hoff was appointed to professor in 2009 and has been working at NTNU since then. He was a supervisor of 13 completed Ph.D. projects, and is currently supervising six Ph.D. students. Dr. Hoff has authored more than 100 scientific and popular scientific papers and is an active reviewer for several international scientific journals. In addition, he has authored several SINTEF reports. Dr. Hoff is the leader of the research laboratory for materials for transport infrastructure at NTNU. The laboratory is used for education of master's and Ph.D. students, project-based testing for industry, and research purposes.

Rabbira Garba Saba obtained his Dr.Eng degree in pavement engineering from the Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU) in 2002. His doctoral thesis focused on the permanent deformation properties of asphalt mixtures. From 2002 to 2004 he worked as post-doctoral researcher at NTNU. Since 2004 he has been working at the Norwegian Public Roads Administration, pavement technology section, mainly working with research and development (R&D) in the area of pavement engineering. He has been involved in several R &D projects in the area of pavement performance modeling, environmentally friendly pavements, field performance monitoring, long-life pavements and analytical pavement design. He has also been involved in several Nordic, European, and international cooperation projects in the area of pavement engineering.
