Effect of Oxidative Aging on Dynamic Modulus of Hot-Mix Asphalt Mixtures
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The dynamic modulus (|E*|) of asphalt mixtures is an important parameter in pavement design and analysis. Although the |E*| values of freshly prepared hot-mix asphalt (HMA) mixtures can be conveniently determined through ...
High-Temperature Rheological Properties of Asphalt Binders with Polymeric, Warm-Mix, and Rubber Particulate Additives
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: High-temperature rheological properties of asphalt binders are important in asphalt mixture production and compaction. In this study, the high-temperature rheological properties of asphalt binders with polymeric, warm-mix, ...
Connections between the Rheological and Chemical Properties of Long-Term Aged Asphalt Binders
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Innovative Design and Construction of a High RCC Gravity Dam in High Seismic Intensity Region
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A few innovative designs and construction measures are introduced to build a roller-compacted concrete (RCC) gravity dam with a height of 160 m (524.96 ft), whereas the design peak ground acceleration of the dam site is
Investigation of Oxygen Diffusion Behavior in Asphalt Mixtures Using Molecular Dynamics Simulations and Laboratory Test
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The long-term durability of asphalt pavements is closely related to the oxidative aging of asphalt binders. Oxidative aging depends on the oxygen diffusion in asphalt mixtures. To further investigate oxidation reactions ...
Aging Property of Oil Recycled Asphalt Binders with Reclaimed Asphalt Materials
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The reuse of high content of reclaimed asphalt pavement and reclaimed asphalt shingles in hot mixtures by adding recycling oils has attracted wide attention and interest in the paving industry. However, the aging property ...
Mechanical and Acoustic Properties Composition Design and Effects Analysis of Poroelastic Road Surface
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Existing low-noise pavement has gradually lost its function with the development of urban road traffic. A poroelastic road surface (PERS), mainly composed of tire rubber granules, polyurethane, and aggregate, is considered ...
Characterization of the Distress Modes and In Situ Material Properties of Highway Asphalt Pavement with Long Service Life
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A 36-year-old, heavily trafficked highway asphalt pavement was analyzed in detail. The variation in structural capacity was assessed by a falling-weight deflectometer (FWD). Trenches were cut to examine the distresses in ...

Novel Asphalt-Mix Design with High Thermal Diffusivity for Alleviating the Urban Heat Island
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Excessive surface temperature of asphalt pavement in summer is one of the main causes of urban heat islands (UHIs), so reducing pavement temperature is a potential research perspective for alleviating the UHI effect. This ...
