Abstract: Asphalt pavements are under extreme strain from high-volume traffic with ultraheavy axle loads, leading to rutting, fatigue, and moisture damage that reduces the useful life of asphalt mixtures. Studies have suggested that ...

Abstract: Low-temperature cracking is a very common type of distress in flexible pavements in cold areas that extends in the form of longitudinal and transverse cracks on the surface layer. Modifying the properties of the control ...

Abstract: Thermal or low-temperature cracking is caused by extremely cold weather or temperature cycles in cold climates. This distress can be controlled by, among others, bitumen modification. In light of the positive performance ...
