A number of research studies have focused on the linkage between material properties and
pavement performance. Part of the efforts in this research was the development of …

Compaction of asphalt mixture is a critical step of the pavement construction, which
determines the performance and durability for asphalt pavement. The densification behavior …

This paper presents a comparative study of laboratory results of both dynamic modulus
testing and field rutting performances of hot-mix asphalt (HMA) in the state of Michigan …

Cold in-place recycling (CIR) has been increasingly applied in many areas of China, but
there is no widely accepted method for the mix design of CIR. The compaction of cold …

Compaction is a crucial topic for asphalt mixture in that the success of mix design greatly
depends on the compaction method being used, and the asphalt pavement achieves the …

Rutting in bituminous layers is a major mode of distress, especially in pavements with thick
bituminous layers. Different binder and mix rutting specifications are adopted by agencies …

Warm mix asphalt (WMA) technologies that use a foaming effect are one of the most
commonly used WMA technologies due to their cost-effectiveness. The concept behind the …

Gyratory compaction has widely been used to evaluate the compactability of hot asphalt
mixtures. Existing efforts on modeling of gyratory compaction have largely been devoted to …

The flow number test is widely utilized as a routine test for assessing the rutting resistance of
asphalt mixtures. The objective of this study is to propose a novel method of determining the …

Compaction technique used in Marshall design does not model the process of actual rolling
procedures on site exactly. Carrying out laboratory compaction of dense bituminous …
