Viscoelastoplastic Continuum Damage Model Application to Thermal Cracking of Asphalt Concrete
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A viscoelastoplastic continuum damage (VEPCD) model has recently been developed and validated under the auspices of the National Cooperative Highway Research Program 9-19 project, entitled “Advanced Mixture Characterization ...
Framework for Hybrid Performance-Based Quality Assurance for Flexible Airfield Pavements
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: It is common practice to adopt prescription specifications and performance-related specifications in airfield pavement construction. Limited studies have been reported in the literature on quality assurance procedures for ...
Framework for Low-Temperature Cracking Analysis of Asphalt Mixtures Using a Viscoelastic Continuum Damage Model
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Thermal cracking performance assessment of flexible pavements is paramount to improve the quality of the roads in cold-climate regions. In this paper, a reduced testing framework for analysis of hot-mix asphalt (HMA) ...
Issues Affecting Measurement of the Complex Modulus of Asphalt Concrete
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper addresses issues of machine compliance and instrumentation that affect the measurement of asphalt concrete material properties in the laboratory. Accurate determination of fundamental material properties is ...
Viscoelastoplastic Damage Characterization of Asphalt–Aggregate Mixtures Using Digital Image Correlation
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper presents the research effort in which the viscoelastoplastic continuum damage (VEPCD) model is developed and calibrated for the behavioral prediction of asphalt–aggregate mixtures subjected to tensile stresses ...
