Asphalt binder plays an important role in the overall resistance of an asphalt mixture to
pavement distresses. The rheological properties should be fully characterized before it is put …

Incorporating reclaimed asphalt pavement (RAP) increases concern about long-term fatigue
and cracking resistance of the resultant mixture due to the presence of an aged binder …

The objective of this paper is to investigate the microstructure of high-viscosity modified
asphalt binder (HVA) containing high-content polymers and its effect on fatigue …

Mineral fillers are an essential component of asphalt concrete. Significant amounts of
mineral fillers are used in constructing asphalt pavement. However, mineral fillers are an …

Escalating the price of asphalt binder and environmental issues have led to an increasing
desire to use high amounts of reclaimed asphalt pavement (RAP) material in asphalt …

The linear amplitude sweep (LAS) test is considered a useful tool for evaluating fatigue of
asphalt binders. It has been confirmed that a good correlation exists between fatigue …

Cracking, mainly referring to fatigue damage, is one of the primary distress modes of asphalt
pavement. The inquiry into the fatigue resistance of asphalt binders and mixtures are …

The styrene–butadiene-styrene (SBS) and crumb rubber (CR) composite modified asphalt
exhibits excellent prospects for engineering applications; nevertheless, few studies have …

The thermo-mechanical properties of asphalt mixtures are highly influenced by the
properties of the asphalt binders. The poor performance of the asphalt binders can lead to …

Shortage of natural resources and the high price of bitumen have encouraged the pavement
engineers to use high contents of reclaimed asphalt pavement (RAP) material in new …
