During the last decades, the number of vehicles per citizen as well as the traffic speed and
load has dramatically increased. This sudden and somehow unplanned overloading has …

This review addresses the effects of the modifications with nanomaterials, particularly
nanosilica, nanoclays, and nanoiron, on the mechanical performance and aging resistance …

During last decade, researchers' interest in nanotechnology applications, particularly in the
field of pavement materials, has been increasing. This research work focused on the …

To better understand the thermal-oxidative aging mechanism of asphalt binder at the
component level, a new isothermal aging method was developed to discuss thermal …

Rising costs of constructing and maintaining asphaltic concrete pavements present a
challenge requiring an alternative solution. Nanomaterials can be cost-effectively integrated …

The physical and rheological properties of asphalt mixtures affect pavement performance at
high and low ambient temperatures, and thus can affect the final performance of the mixture …

Organo-modified nanoclay has got considerable attention in recent years to improve the
performance of asphalt binders. However, various aspects such as rutting performance …

One of the most common forms of failure in pavement performance is rutting. Bitumen can
play a decisive role as one of the main materials used in asphalt mixtures, and modifying the …

Rutting is identified and used as the first failure mechanism in most important design
conditions of flexible pavements. Bitumen can play a decisive role as one of the main …

In this study, for enhancing the resistance of asphalt against thermal oxidative and ultraviolet
oxidative reaction simultaneously, the concept of multi-dimensional nanomaterials (MDNs) …
