Use of reclaimed asphalt pavement (RAP) materials in warm mix asphalt (WMA) mixtures is
getting popular around the world due to economic and environmental benefits. However, the …

Micro or nano zinc oxide (ZnO), as a modifier, can significantly improve some properties of
asphalt and asphalt mixture, but the effect of ZnO particle size is still unclear. In this paper …

Many research has indicated that fiber content and type have an essential effect on the
asphalt mixture performances. However, the impact of fiber properties has not been studied …

Waste recycling is becoming one of the most concerned issues in the field of environmental
conservation. This study developed environmental friendly alternative binders for permeable …

The paper presents determination of the probability of thermal cracking of asphalt mixtures
with different reclaimed asphalt pavement (RAP) content on the basis of laboratory tests and …

Thermal cracking is one of the most common distresses for asphalt pavement constructed in
the cold regions. In order to address this issue, the combined use of fracture mechanics …

Asphalt binder represents the main constituent of asphalt paving mixtures. The functional
performance and durability of asphalt pavements strongly depend on the rheological and …

In regions with low-temperatures, action transverse cracks can appear in asphalt pavements
as a result of thermal stresses that exceed the fracture strength of materials used in asphalt …

In this paper, the low temperature strength of asphalt mixture is investigated based on
indirect tensile (IDT) and semi-circular bending (SCB) tests and on two-dimensional …

The characterisation of asphalt binder at low temperature is of fundamental importance for
selecting and designing asphalt materials with good and durable performance in regions …
