Abstract: Adding an insulation layer above the frost-susceptible layer in regular pavement structures was proved to be an efficient way to mitigate the influence of climates, such as frost heave and thaw weakening, on pavements in ...

Abstract: The objectives of this study were to determine a suitable set of tests to use with a moisture-conditioning process and to develop a machine learning model to predict the moisture susceptibility of hot mix asphalt. ...

Abstract: Low-temperature cracking is the main distress in asphalt pavement in cold regions (such as the arctic and subarctic regions) as the climate in these areas is severe in winter. While soft asphalt binders (such as PG 52-34 ...

Abstract: The addition of fibers to asphalt mixtures has the potential to improve the resistance of asphalt mixtures to cracking and permanent deformation (rutting). However, the state (distribution) of fibers in the asphalt mix is ...
