Abstract: AbstractFatigue cracking is one of the major distresses in asphalt pavement. In past studies that characterized the fatigue mechanism of asphaltic materials, plasticity has been considered independent of damage. However, ...

Abstract: AbstractFatigue failure of asphalt pavement and asphalt mixtures is greatly affected by that of asphalt binder, which exhibits elasticity/viscoelasticity, plasticity, and damage as loads increase. Existing models do not ...
