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 cracking is one of the most notable distresses in pavements and asphalt binder
plays a significant role within the mixture. Current research community has gained …

Increased quantities of asphalt-based recycled materials can be incorporated in asphalt
paving mixtures by using recycling agents. Previous studies demonstrated that restoring the …

Nationwide traffic loads are increasing, pushing conventional asphalt to its limit. Polymer
modification of asphalt, which can improve both low and high temperature performance, is …

This paper aims to study the application of the steel slag powder in asphalt to analyze how it
may influence the low-temperature fracture performance of asphalt materials. To fulfill this …

This research investigated the effect of filler on the ductility of filler-bitumen mastics, as a
surrogate of the cohesive behaviour and the tensile properties. Various fillers (industrial …

The objective of this paper is to investigate and compare the fatigue failure characteristics of
neat and modified asphalt binders using both cyclic and monotonic loading modes, and …

This paper aims to investigate the influence of thermal history on the intermediate and low-
temperature characterisation of asphalt binders. First, various asphalt binder intermediate …

This paper describes nano-silica (NS) reinforcement effects on the properties of an asphalt
binder modified by 5% of low density polyethylene (LDPE) and high density polyethylene …

The physico-chemo-rheological properties of asphalt binder are critical for the long-term
performance of asphalt pavement infrastructures. The objectives of this study are to …
