Rut Resistant Asphalt Pavements
The three major distress conditions affecting the performance of asphalt pavements are permanent deformation or rutting, fatigue or load associated cracking, and low temperature or thermal cracking. In an earlier technical topics article (Fall, 1998), we examined the causes of fatigue cracking and the importance of good compaction during construction to help minimize this type of distress. In t...
متن کاملMixed Recycling with Emulsion and Cement of Asphalt Pavements. Design Procedure and Improvements Achieved
Cold in place recycling, as an alternative to milling and standard replacement, shows a series of technical, economic and environmental advantages, which have done its use to grow in Spain, especially from 1990 onwards. Nevertheless, these actions have revealed certain aspects and limitations that prevent cold recycling from being considered a fully consolidated technique nowadays. The use of v...
متن کاملDevelopment of a Design Procedure for Aeronautical Structures Based on Reliability
In this paper, an approach to aeronautical structural design based on reliability analysis is presented. In this way, the concept of level of safety is discussed and methods of its calculation using statistical data are described. Based on the concept of level of safety, a design procedure is proposed. In order to validate this design procedure, two design cases are studied. In the first case s...
متن کاملDynamic Hydraulic Conductivity (Permeability) of Asphalt Pavements
External pressures applied to a saturated pavement pore structure are often dynamic due to the repeated tire loading. Therefore, a dynamic permeability constant is more realistic representation of the response of a pavement pore structure than the Darcy’s permeability. To investigate the unsteady (dynamic) fluid flow in asphalt pavements, a 3D fluid flow model was developed using the lattice Bo...
متن کاملCapturing Solar Energy from Asphalt Pavements
The concept of extracting heat energy from asphalt pavements has been investigated in this study. The scope of work consisted of finite element modeling and testing with small and large scale asphalt pavement samples. Water flowing through copper tubes inserted within asphalt pavements samples were used as heat exchangers in the experiments. The rise in temperature of water as a result of flow ...
