Abstract: An accurate estimate of temperature stress in asphalt pavements is an important consideration for colder regions. In asphalt, a viscoelastic material, the developed stress depends on the trend of temperature variation and ...

Abstract: A typical asphalt pavement design based on the mechanistic-empirical approach offers multiple design alternatives for a given set of input values. The present paper emphasizes the fact that the cost as well as the reliability ...

Abstract: This paper presents an analytical approach for estimation of temperature stress in asphalt pavements. Nonlinear variation of temperature with respect to time as well as across the depth of the asphalt layer is considered. ...
