Fatigue cracking is a common form of pavement failure and is strongly tied to the properties
of the asphalt binder used in the mix. The Superpave grading procedure is currently used in …

Fatigue and rutting are the two major failure distresses in flexible pavement that affect
significantly the serviceability of pavement. The properties of bitumen have a direct effect on …

Fatigue cracking is one of the main distress modes of highway asphalt pavements. In
laboratory fatigue tests, haversine or sinusoidal loading waves are commonly applied to …

Abstract In this research, Linear Amplitude Sweep (LAS) test was conducted on several
asphalt binders modified by different percentages of gilsonite and Styrene-Butadiene …

This paper presents the results of a laboratory study of evaluating the fatigue characteristics
of hot-mix asphalt (HMA) mixtures using different testing methods. In this study, the fatigue …

In the study reported in this paper, the previously developed failure criterion for the
viscoelastic continuum damage (VECD) model (referred to here as GOR, where O indicates …

Defining failure and developing a unified failure criterion for the fatigue testing of asphalt
materials remain a challenge. This study seeks to develop a failure criterion for the fatigue …

This paper compared rut resistance, fatigue resistance and moisture susceptibility of plant-
produced asphalt mixtures paved in different structural layers, in which the combined effects …

Load‐induced cracking is one of the primary forms of distress in asphalt pavements at
intermediate temperatures. Binder modification is a good alternative to promote the cracking …

The healing phenomenon has been noted by pavement engineers for years, but its relation
to hot-mix asphalt (HMA) fatigue behavior is still far from clear. This study conducted an …
