Stripping is an important type of distress about which gaining thorough information can
improve the pavements design methods. A brief review of researches on the stripping …

Structural Behavior of Asphalt Pavements provides engineers and researchers with a
detailed guide to the structural behavioral dynamics of asphalt pavement including …

The sigmoidal equation is usually used to make predictions for dynamic modulus (| E*|), but
equations to predict phase angle are still unavailable. In this study, equations to predict both …

The new 2002 AASHTO guide for the design of pavement structures is based on
mechanistic principles and requires the dynamic modulus as input to compute stress, strain …

Severe Canadian winter conditions and growing traffic volumes are vital factors resulting in
a reduction of the service life of flexible pavements. Researchers and engineers strived to …

With the current trend toward developing mechanistic flexible pavement design and the
need for more reliable design procedures, accurate characterization of hot-mix asphalt …

This is the final report of the Part 1 (HMA Mixture Characterization) of the “Preparation for
Implementation of the Mechanistic-Empirical Pavement Design Guide in Michigan” project …

During the past two decades, Finite Element (FE) techniques were successfully used to
simulate different pavement problems that could not be modelled using the simpler multi …

This paper presents a unified procedure that can rapidly determine the discrete relaxation
and retardation spectra of asphalt concrete. The new procedure involves three consecutive …

The aim of the present study is the evaluation of the Witczak 1-37A, Bari & Witczak, NCHRP
1-40D and Hirsch models for the estimation of dynamic modulus (E∗) and the subsequent …
