Abstract: Inertia effect is an artifact commonly seen in the oscillation test for soft materials. It is due to the misattribute of the instrument’s elastic component to the sample’s properties, which will lead to overestimated storage ...

Abstract: The bonding property plays a crucial role in the durability of the asphalt mixture. Warm-mix asphalt (WMA) commonly is used for energy-efficient pavements. The addition of warm-mix additives makes the behavior of the bonding ...

Abstract: The current research on the moisture diffusion behavior in asphalt mostly discusses static water without considering dynamic pore water. In this paper, Fick, Two-stage, and Langmuir moisture diffusion models were used to ...

Abstract: The master curve is widely used in the evaluation of rheological behavior asphalt. However, due to the complex rheological properties of high-viscosity modified asphalt (HVMA), its rheological properties change significantly ...

Abstract: One of the most widely used polymer-based modifiers in asphalt binders is styrene–butadiene–styrene (SBS), which results in binders of increased modulus, strength, toughness, and resistance to permanent deformation. These ...
