Abstract: In order to compare stress responses in pavement structure with various base states under vehicle load, finite element method were used to establish the model for different projects, and then distribution of stresses in ...

Abstract: In order to avoid or delay the phenomenon of pavement slab humping by high temperatures in summer, from the point of view of mechanical behaviors, the reason of pavement slab humping by high temperatures in summer was ...

Abstract: Hot-mix asphalt (HMA) mixtures with high content of reclaimed asphalt pavement (RAP) have been investigated and applied in the laboratory and in plants. An asphalt mixture can be considered as a four-scale assemblage of ...

Abstract: This paper investigated the effect of atmospheric temperature and vehicle loading on the formation of rutting in asphalt concrete pavement. ABAQUS was utilized to build a three-dimensional model of pavement structure. With ...

Abstract: To analyze influencing factors and evaluation method of low-temperature performance of porous asphalt mixture, first, three kinds of modified binder were chosen as original, thin film aging and pressure aging samples for ...

Abstract: The optional multiple repeated load (OMRL) test, which involves multiple load levels, is a more promising test method to simulate actual traffic load conditions on pavements. The presented study developed the load-temperature ...

Abstract: Morphological characteristics of aggregates have been regarded as a significant factor related to the high-temperature performance of asphalt mixtures. Fractal theory was used to calculate the fractal dimension to evaluate ...
