Prediction of Creep Stiffness of Asphalt Mixture with Micromechanical Finite-Element and Discrete-Element Models
This study presents micromechanical finite-element FE and discrete-element DE models for the prediction of viscoelastic creep stiffness of asphalt mixture. Asphalt mixture is composed of graded aggregates bound with mastic asphalt mixed with fines and fine aggregates and air voids. The two-dimensional 2D microstructure of asphalt mixture was obtained by optically scanning the smoothly sawn surf...
متن کاملNCHRP Report 530 – Evaluation of Indirect Tensile Test (IDT) Procedures for Low-Temperature Performance of Hot Mix Asphalt
Systematic, well-designed research provides the most effective approach to the solution of many problems facing highway administrators and engineers. Often, highway problems are of local interest and can best be studied by highway departments individually or in cooperation with their state universities and others. However, the accelerating growth of highway transportation develops increasingly ...
متن کاملNumerical study of bending test on compacted clay by Discrete Element Method: tensile strength determination
The study of the tensile behaviour of clay is one of the topics which requires a specific lighting especially when one pays a close attention to the pathology of work built with or on clays subjected to significant tensile forces. Therefore, failure or damage of clay, under specific conditions, can be related to tensile stress limit and not to shear stress limit. It is the case of compacted cla...
متن کاملAnalysis of creep properties using a flattened indirect tension test for asphalt concrete
The Indirect Tension Test (IDT) is frequently used for evaluation of asphalt material viscoelastic creep properties. With the increased use of finer aggregate gradations and polymer modified asphalt binders in asphalt materials, crushing can occur under the narrow loading heads. The new specimen configuration proposed has a trimmed area under the loading heads, creating a “flattened-IDT.” This ...
متن کاملEvaluating the Semi-Circular Bending Test for HMA Mixtures
Semi-Circular Bending (SCB) Test is a fast and accurate three-point bending test, which was originally used in rock mechanics. SCB test is going to be an accepted test method for asphalt concrete pavements. Different asphalt-mixture property-values such as tensile strength, stress intensity factor and fatigue can be obtained by this test. In this study, static and dynamic tests including SCB te...
