Modeling Viscoelastic Crack Growth in Hot-Mix Asphalt Concrete Mixtures Using a Disk-Shaped Compact Tension Test
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The growth of viscoelastic cracks in hot-mix asphalt (HMA) concrete mixtures was simulated by using a disk-shaped compaction test. Modeling techniques, including the interconversion and continuous spectrum methods, the ...
Viscoelastic Continuum Damage Model of Asphalt Concrete with Healing
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A viscoelastic constitutive model of asphalt mixtures that accounts for the rate-dependent damage growth and microdamage healing is presented in this paper. An elastic continuum damage model, which is based on thermodynamics ...
Viscoelastic Constitutive Model for Asphalt Concrete under Cyclic Loading
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper presents a mechanistic approach to uniaxial viscoelastic constitutive modeling of asphalt concrete that accounts for damage evolution under cyclic loading conditions. Schapery's elastic-viscoelastic correspondence ...
Application of Dynamic Stability Criterion in Evaluating Field Rutting of Asphalt Pavements Using the Wheel Tracking Test
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: In this study, the application of the dynamic stability (DS) criterion to evaluate rutting of asphalt pavements using the wheel tracking test is presented considering field pavement conditions. A simplified model estimating ...
Continuum Damage Mechanics-Based Fatigue Model of Asphalt Concrete
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A fatigue performance prediction model of asphalt concrete is developed from a uniaxial constitutive model based on the elastic-viscoelastic correspondence principle and continuum damage mechanics through mathematical ...
Mechanical Characteristics of Axially Restrained Concrete Specimens at Early Ages
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This study was performed to investigate the development of restraint stress and strain in axially restrained concrete specimens at early ages. Axially restrained specimens, generally, well represent field conditions of ...
New Approach in Determining Pay Adjustment Factors Based on Rutting Performance Modeling for Asphalt Pavements
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: In this study, an approach in determining the asphalt pay adjustment factor was proposed by evaluating the rutting performance based on different asphalt concrete acceptable quality characteristic (AQC) parameters. These ...
Automated Segmentation and Deterioration Determination of Road Markings
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Road markings are used on pavement surfaces to provide guidance and information for drivers and pedestrians. When navigating road networks, awareness of upcoming hazards and critical information is essential for safe and ...
New Approach to Construct Master Curve of Damaged Asphalt Concrete Based on Falling Weight Deflectometer Back-Calculated Moduli
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Dynamic Backcalculation Approach of Deflections Obtained from the Rolling Dynamic Deflectometer: Fundamental Theory
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: In this study, the dynamic behavior of asphalt pavement from the Rolling Dynamic Deflectometer (RDD) was investigated. The effect of the loading frequency to the RDD deflections was evaluated by conducting RDD tests on ...
