The pre-and post-cracking resistance of asphalt mixtures depends on factors such as the
coherence of the soft asphalt matrix (SAM) section, which should be considered. The SAM …

Low-temperature cracks (LTC) and intermediate-temperature cracks (ITC) are two important
types of cracks in asphalt mixtures that cause damage to pavements and incur high …

This research aimed to investigate the crack resistance of asphalt mixtures via laboratory
tests and discrete element modelling. For the construction of virtual cracking model, the …

I-II mixed mode fracture is a common fracture pattern of asphalt pavement under the coupled
tension and shearing loads. To address the roles of reclaimed asphalt pavement (RAP) and …

In recent years, steel slag has gained widespread utilization in pavement construction as a
green, low-carbon building material. In this study steel slag aggregate (SSA) was used as a …

This study evaluated the propagation mechanisms and dynamic meso-mechanical
responses of reflective cracking on the asphalt overlays on concrete airfield pavement …

An asphalt concrete anti-seepage core wall may be faced with the risk of cracking due to
problems like uneven settlement of the foundation during the service period. Considering …

Encapsulated rejuvenators embedded in asphalt mixtures are a promising technology to
extend the service life of asphalt pavements. However, their effects on the asphalt mixture's …

Many researchers use fiber to improve the cracking resistance of asphalt mixtures, but
research concerning the effects of fiber on fracture behavior is limited. The fracture behavior …

In recent years, there has been a growing trend in utilizing fibers to improve the crack
resistance of asphalt mixtures. However, the examination of steel fiber's impact on the crack …
