Abstract: The present study proposed a new method for characterizing linear viscoelastic (LVE) properties of asphalt concrete (AC) under triaxial loading conditions. The presented method adopted the relaxation spectrum model derived ...

Abstract: This study proposes a three-dimensional (3D) mesomechanical simulation–based approach to determining the representative volume element (RVE) of asphalt concrete. In this approach, 3D mesostructures of asphalt concrete were ...
