Fatigue cracking is one of the principal failure modes of asphalt pavement. The chief factors
affecting the fatigue failure of asphalt pavement are load, environment, pavement structure …

Adhesion between bitumen and aggregates has a major impact on the performance of
asphalt mixes. In order to avoid stripping and consequent premature failure of a pavement …

The microstructure variation plays an essential role in the micro-mechanical performance of
the bitumen and the macro-mechanical behavior of asphalt mixtures. This research aims to …

This project tested eight commonly used mixtures in Switzerland: three surface courses,
three binder courses and two base courses. Three types of test methods for stiffness …

Mineral aggregates are the main constituent of asphalt mixtures by volume, having a

The design of rigid pavements in Austria is currently based on a catalogue of standard
structures, which can be chosen depending on traffic-related parameters. This approach …

The pavement in this paper has been considered as a three layered system with the top
layer of bituminous mix followed by unbound granular layer which rests on soil subgrade …

In order to prevent reflection cracking of composite pavement, the Hills formula, Goodman
hypothesis, and ABAQUS software are used to carry out simultaneous dynamic modulus …

Emulsion asphalts are cost-effective, environmentally friendly, and sustainable alternatives
