Abstract: A laboratory investigation of the interactions between granites and asphalts based on rheology is described. In this study of asphalt-filler interactions, the rheological properties of asphalt mastics using different granite ...

Abstract: Styrene-butadiene-styrene (SBS) and starch (ST) have been used by many to modify asphalt cement and to improve the properties of asphalt concrete. In this investigation, SBS and ST were used to modify asphalt cement. The ...

Abstract: This study investigates the benefits of modifying asphalt and stone-matrix-asphalt (SMA) mixtures in flexible pavement.

Abstract: Four hard-grade asphalt mixtures of two hard binders and two gradations are investigated in terms of their rutting resistance, cracking resistance, and moisture sensitivity. After examining the basic properties of the ...

Abstract: In this study, a hard-grade paving asphalt with a penetration, of

Abstract: To evaluate the properties of asphalt accurately, a new index, dynamic viscoelastic index (

Abstract: Central composite design-response surface methodology was used to determine the best content of raw materials and improve the performance of hot-poured bituminous sealant. Content range and process technology were studied ...

Abstract: In the asphalt mixtures, although asphalt is predominantly considered the binder holding the aggregates together, the actual product used to connect aggregate particles is the asphalt-mineral filler mastic which consists ...

Abstract: The mix of warm and hot recycled asphalt mixtures were determined after reclaimed asphalt mixture (RAP) analysis and mix design. With similar aggregate gradation, the RAP content in warm recycled asphalt mixture increased ...
