The cohesive and adhesive performances of bituminous materials significantly affect the
service life of asphalt pavement. The molecular dynamics (MD) simulation method has been …

Interfacial adhesion at the molecular level is a complex process, where the key players
(asphalt, aggregates, water, and air) are in a dynamic state of structural equilibrium, varying …

This paper introduces a hybrid utilization of scrap tires and bio-oil made from biomass waste
to create bio-modified rubberized asphalt for use in roadway construction. This in turn …

The microscopic interfacial properties between asphalt and aggregates determine the
macroscopic cracking behaviors of asphalt mixtures. To provide guidance on durability …

To further explore the long-term aging behaviors of bitumen from the multiscale
perspectives, the experimental characterization and molecular dynamics (MD) simulation …

Asphalt-aggregate interfaces are prone to damage by moisture, leading to a decrease in
interfacial adhesion. However, the precise mechanism governing water molecule behavior …

The interfacial characteristics between fiber-modified asphalt mastics and aggregates play a
crucial role in the performance of asphalt mixtures. To explore these interfacial interaction …

Adhesive failure between bitumen and aggregates is the primary cause of cracking in
asphalt mixtures and pavement moisture damage. The resulting pavement distress poses a …

As a solid waste, graphite tailings (GTs) have caused serious harm to the environment and
nearby residents, and using GTs as pavement materials can not only solve the …

In order to explore the effect of aggregate type on the interface interaction between
rubberized asphalt and aggregate, the representative molecules of base asphalt, rubberized …
