Rutting is one of the significant distresses in flexible pavements. Examining the methods to
decrease permanent deformation is of considerable importance to provide long service life …

Rutting development and its prediction are critically important for the long-term preservation
of semi-rigid pavements. A multi-scale test was developed to analyze the rutting …

Asphalt pavements weaken over time due to the effect of environment and heavy traffic
loading on paving constituents. Rutting, fatigue cracking and low temperature cracking are …

Using rice husk ash (RHA), as a waste byproduct of rice milling, in bituminous roadways
provides valuable advantages such as reduction of environmental degradation, lowering …

Accumulated strain in asphalt layer or rutting is one of the major deterioration in asphalt
mixtures that occur in high temperatures. Stone mastic asphalt have gap graded structure …

Using crumb rubber (CR), especially at high percentages, in asphalt pavement using dry
process has less popularity than wet process due to the adverse effect of this method on …

With the outbreak of the coronavirus (COVID-19) and the spread of this virus, the use of
medical equipment, like 3-layerface masks, has increased dramatically. The proliferation of …

Asphalt mixtures in the laboratory scale studies are often compacted and manufactured
using two well-known methods namely gyratory and marshal methods. Due to differences in …

The gradation design has an essential influence on the mechanical properties of asphalt
mixture. Strength and fatigue are two critical mechanical properties of asphalt pavement …

In order to reveal the thermal fatigue behavior of asphalt mixtures under low temperature
conditions, the four-point bending beam tests of strength and fatigue were carried out. The …
