This paper presents a finite element analysis modeling of rutting. The behaviors of the asphalt concrete is described using an elasto-viscoplastic constitutive relation, while an elastoplastic constitutive relation is used for the lower layers. The model a ...
The asphalt rubber blend properties are strongly related to its base components properties. The base bitumen composition is considered as a key factor influencing the final rheological properties of asphalt rubber binder. This paper describes results from ...
The main objective of this innovation is to develop bituminous underlayers (sometimes called base course) with high percentage of re-use materials at low cost and with high performance. In fact, this innovation concerns the formulation and assessment of hi ...
The highway traffic size and loads have been continuously increasing all over Europe. At the same time, the expectations of users have been growing. They need more safe, durable and comfortable highway surfaces which make their trips low-cost and do not ac ...
In recent years, pavement rutting rate has increased significantly due to constant traffic intensity increment. These solicitations affect the bituminous layers that can quickly attain their permanent deformation limit resistance. This phenomenon can lead ...
Asphalt rubber is a modified binder widely used in pavement construction. Composition design methods of asphalt rubber blends are exclusively empiric and rely on the selection of the optimal combination of parameters after a long experimental program. The ...
This Phase 2 Report demostrates that the technology available for long life semi-rigid pavements is not as developed as that for fully-flexible pavement types. Whereas the concept of long-life fully-flexible pavements has been adopted in some European pave ...
This special issue contains a selection of invited, full-length, peer-reviewed manuscripts from participants of the international workshop “Water in Pavements WIP’05”, held in Madrid, Spain on 27th October 2005. The presented papers give a complete picture ...
This communication concerns analysis of the behavior of flexible pavements using an elastic-viscoplastic constitutive relation for the asphalt concrete. The numerical model takes into consideration the influence of the temperature on the behavior of the as ...
The asphalt rubber blends design is an empirical procedure and is quite sensitive to the variability of the components properties. A better understanding of the physical phenomenon involved during the curing process is a prerequisite step to propose a rati ...
