The major contemporary in road pavement engineering is related to the creation of green
and sustainable infrastructures, eg, reduction of environmental impacts, increase in traffic …

Porous asphalt (PA) is a distinct mixture type that deliberately designed with stone-on-stone
contact of the coarse aggregate fraction and high percentage of interconnected air voids to …

The issue of oxidative aging of asphalt binder has been recognized and studied for almost a
century. Hubbard and Reeve (1913) published the first results of a study that examined the …

The skeleton structure of asphalt mixture is the main carrier to resist load. At present, the
identification and evaluation of skeleton contact chains need to be further investigated. This …

Filling grouting material into the voids of porous asphalt mixture (PAM) is one of the
important steps in the construction of pouring semi-flexible pavement (SFP), and the pore …

This paper is an attempt to identify the internal structure evolution within asphalt mixtures
under freeze–thaw cycles. Three types of asphalt mixtures were fabricated in the laboratory …

Aggregate contacts significantly affect the mechanical behavior of asphalt concrete.
However, there still lacks an effective way to account for them in numerical modeling …

Characterization of the asphalt concrete microstructure using two-dimensional (2-D) imaging
techniques is an economically efficient approach. However, the features that have been …

The microstructure characteristic of asphalt mixture has substantial effects on its
macroscopic mechanical properties. The study on the structural characteristics of asphalt …

Aggregate skeleton is a significant factor that determines load transfer paths in asphalt
concrete. This study prepared asphalt mixtures with different aggregate morphologies …
