The effects of compaction process, mixture type and environmental conditions on mode I
cracking resistance of asphalt concrete (AC) materials was investigated experimentally. To …

Opening mode fracture behavior of asphalt mixture is studied experimentally and
theoretically using three full disk‐shaped specimens, namely, edge‐notched disk bend …

This research was focused to investigate the low-temperature cracking resistance of five
plant produced SP12. 5 surface course asphalt mixtures by conducting the Disc-Shaped …

This study investigates the anti-cracking performance and cracking mechanisms of asphalt
mixtures. The results of experimental tests were compared with simulated tests of asphalt …

Asphaltic concrete mixtures are among the most common construction materials for the
pavement of roads. As a multi-phase composite mixture with randomly distributed …

This paper was aimed to investigate the effects of crumb rubber, weather condition and
loading mode on fracture behaviour of warm mix asphalt (WMA) mixtures. For this purpose …

This paper aims to provide an investigation of the impact of supports on fracture mode of
loading using semi-circular bending (SCB) specimen. A crack with an angle of α is assumed …

This study aims to develop a new index to evaluate the low-temperature cracking
performance (LTCP) of recycled asphalt mixtures. To achieve this, the assumption that …

Using aggregate generation and packing algorithm technique coupled with finite element
method, a part of reconstructed asphalt pavement structure with five layers and containing a …

To study the reason why the evaluation result of fracture energy is sometimes inconsistent
with in situ cracking, the accuracy of fracture energy in evaluating low-temperature cracking …
