strain criterion, and asphalt over rubblized concrete design procedures, considering …

Asphalt binders are vital components in the construction of roadways, and their quality
significantly impacts the performance and durability of asphalt mixtures. However, it is …

This study aims to connect asphalt binder mechanical properties to their dynamic
microscopic morphology and chemical indices to provide a more thorough and fundamental …

Asphalt binders are crucial in roadway construction, significantly influencing the
performance and durability of asphalt mixtures. Even with identical mix designs, the …

Cracking in flexible pavements is one of the most prevalent forms of distress. Two types of
cracking ubiquitous to most regions are fatigue or alligator cracking, and thermal or low …

With the surge in the use of modified asphalt binders throughout the world, it is important to
examine these materials for performance outside of their linear viscoelastic (LVE) range …

High amounts of recycled material in asphalt concrete (AC) pavements often increase the
risk of cracking. Although the use of reclaimed asphalt pavement (RAP) and recycled …

Abstract Porous Asphalt Mixtures (PAMs) improve resilience of flexible pavements in the
context of climate change. PAM application in coastal cities like Chicago is of interest; …

Developing new and efficient methods to simulate the aging of asphalt binders and mixtures
continues to be an important area of research for the asphalt community around the world …

The final composition of asphalt binder in an asphalt mix can vary depending if it is a neat,
virgin binder, or a blend of neat binder with reclaimed asphalt pavement (RAP), modifiers …
