GOMEZ LIZARAZO, Jairo Alberto; SERNA URAN, Conrado Augusto  and  ARANGO SERNA, Martín Darío. DYNAMIC MODEL FOR QUALITY ASSESSMENT OF LOGISTICS CORRIDOR ROAD INFRASTRUCTURE IN COLOMBIA. Rev.EIA.Esc.Ing.Antioq [online]. 2016, n.25, pp.135-145. ISSN 1794-1237.

In this paper the behavior of the road infrastructure of logistics corridors in Colombia is modeled using system dynamics to assess the impact of investment policies carried out in the paved road network. Five categories are considered for assessing the quality of the paved road network as defined by the Instituto Nacional de Vías y Transporte (INVÍAS). The model contains parameters for evaluatingroad wearbased on average traffic and the investments made for road rehabilitation and maintenance.

Keywords : System dynamics; Pavement wear; International roughness index; State of the road network; Logistics corridor.
