Within the pavement engineering community, porous asphalt (PA) mixes are regarded as
mixes capable of reducing noise and improving wet skid resistance. However, these mixes …

Hot-mix asphalt (HMA) is a particulate composite of mineral aggregates and asphalt binder
in which the aggregate particles reinforce the soft asphalt binder phase, as evidenced by the …

The dynamic modulus of an asphalt mixture plays a crucial role in pavement design and
performance prediction of asphalt pavement. Among many predictive models, the …

This paper carries out a survey on available methods for micromechanical modelling on
asphalt mixture. Focus is placed on models based on different concepts as well as different …

The properties of asphalt binders strongly influence the overall mechanical response of
asphalt mixture composites. A thorough understanding of the mechanistic behavior of …

Abstract The dynamic modulus (| E*|) of asphalt mixtures is one of the most important inputs
in Mechanistic-Empirical (ME) pavement analysis and design. Several models have been …

This study employs a microstructure-based finite element modeling approach to understand
the mechanical behavior of asphalt mixtures across different length scales. Specifically, this …

An empirical| E∗| predictive equation, known as Witczak's| E∗| predictive model, has been
adopted in the Mechanistic-Empirical Pavement Design Guide. However, empirical …

According to the elastic-viscoelastic correspondence principle, an elastic micromechanical
framework taking the inclusion-matrix interface effect into account is extended for predicting …

The dynamic modulus (E*) of asphalt mixtures is considered a primary entry in Mechanistic-
Empirical (ME) pavement design and analysis. Various models have been published and …
