This paper presents the effects of various rejuvenators on the mechanical characteristics of
the asphalt mixtures containing a high percentage of reclaimed asphalt pavement (RAP) …

The understanding of water penetration, diffusion, and swelling-related strength degradation
is critical for assessing the durability of polymer-based composite materials exposed to …

Moisture migration in pavement leads to the loss of strength of asphalt mixture. However,
moisture profile measurement inside of the mixture can be challenging. In this paper, a new …

Asphalt concrete is a highly heterogeneous mixture with complicated microstructures. This
heterogeneity strongly affects the overall three-dimensional (3D) mechanical behavior and …

This paper presents a computational micromechanics modeling approach to predict the
dynamic modulus of asphalt concrete mixtures. The modeling uses a finite element method …

Asphalt fine aggregate matrix (FAM) consists of a binder, fine aggregate, filler, and air voids.
Studies on FAM, which is one scale smaller than asphalt concrete (AC), have been gaining …

It has been demonstrated that humidity, or water vapor, is a non-negligible contributor to
moisture damage of asphalt pavements. However, little work has been done regarding the …

This paper presents integrated experimental-computational efforts to characterize the mixed-
mode fracture of a fine aggregate matrix mixture which is the primary phase of cracks around …

This study presents a multiscale model that concurrently links mixture-level component
properties to the structural performance of asphaltic pavements. Two scales (the global …

Moisture damage greatly influences the performance of asphalt pavements. However,
existing studies evaluating the moisture sensitivity of asphalt mixtures either ignore the …
