Abstract: This paper studies the thermal cracking of asphalt-concrete pavements using a semianalytical model that accounts for the multiscale nature of the thermal cracking phenomenon, the viscoelasticity of asphalt-concrete, and ...

Abstract: This paper develops a model to simulate the distributed thermal cracking of concrete structures with frictional constraint. This model is developed primarily for the thermal cracking asphalt-concrete (AC) pavement structures; ...

Abstract: The issue of “how fast” reversible chemical reactions must be before “instantaneous equilibrium” may be assumed in ground‐water contamination problems is investigated. An example multicomponent model is used to study the ...
