Rheological and Spectroscopic Properties of Ethylene Vinyl Acetate–Modified Rubberized Asphalt
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The effect of ethylene vinyl acetate (EVA) on the aging properties and rheological properties of rubberized asphalt was measured in this paper to identify the optimum proportion of EVA combined with waste tire rubber (WTR) ...
Comparisons of Natural and Enhanced Asphalt Mixtures Containing Recycled Cement-Stabilized Macadam as Aggregates
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The recycling of cement-stabilized macadam (CSM) is beneficial from the effective utilization of resources and the viewpoint of environmental preservation. For the effective utilization of CSM, it is useful to use CSM as ...
3D Spectral Element Solution of Multilayered Half-Space Medium with Harmonic Moving Load: Effect of Layer, Interlayer, and Loading Properties on Dynamic Response of Medium
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The road pavement is a typical three-dimensional (3D) multilayered half-space medium, which consists of the surface courses, base courses, and soil subgrade/foundation. It is critical to understand the dynamic response of ...
Moisture, Rutting, and Fatigue-Cracking Susceptibility of Water-Carrying, Wax-Based, and Chemical-Based Warm Mix Asphalt Systems
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The type of the manufacturing technology as well as the reduced production temperatures of warm mix asphalt (WMA) always raise controversy about the early life and long-term performance of WMA mixtures, more specifically ...
Dynamic Response Analysis of Deep-Sea Sediments with Heterogeneity under Moving Nonuniform Mining Collector Loading
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The dynamic response of heterogeneous deep-sea sediments under moving nonuniform mining collector loading was determined analytically. The heterogeneity of deep-sea sediments is associated with the elastic modulus increasing ...
Laboratory Testing of Rheological Behavior of Water-Foamed Bitumen
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: From the rheological behavior of bitumen, one can understand the physical properties of water-foamed bitumen used in warm mix asphalt. Previously, rheological behaviors of water-foamed bitumen such as apparent viscosity, ...
Nanomechanical Experiments and Molecular Dynamics Explorations for the Deterioration Evolution of Asphalt Driven by Chloride Salt Erosion
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The salt erosion environment will lead to the deterioration of asphalt pavement performance and seriously restrict the service life and sustainability of asphalt pavement. In this research, the evolution mechanism of asphalt ...
Characteristics of Water-Foamed Asphalt Mixture under Multiple Freeze-Thaw Cycles: Laboratory Evaluation
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A major concern with the application of water-foamed asphalt mixtures is the possible performance degradation caused by the presence of inclusion water during production. Inclusion water left in the asphalt mixture after ...
An Analytical Solution for 2D Plane Strain Consolidation in Unsaturated Soils with Lateral and Vertical Semipermeable Drainage Boundaries under Time-Dependent Loading
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: This paper has proposed a closed-form solution for two-dimensional (2D) plane strain consolidation in unsaturated soils with lateral and vertical semipermeable drainage boundaries under time-dependent loading. By using the ...
