Journal ArticleDOI
Internal Structure Characterization of Asphalt Concrete Using Image Analysis
TL;DR: In this paper, the performance of asphalt concrete (AC) mixtures is influenced by the arrangement of aggregates and their associated air voids, and parameters to measure aggregate orientation, aggregate gradation and air void distribution in AC mixes are proposed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Micromechanical Modeling of the Viscoelastic Behavior of Asphalt Mixtures Using the Discrete-Element Method
TL;DR: In this article, the authors presented a methodology for analyzing the viscoelastic response of asphalt mixtures using the discrete element method (DEM) to estimate the parameters of the contact models that define the interaction among the mix constituents.
Journal ArticleDOI
Measurement and Significance of the Coefficient of Thermal Expansion of Concrete in Rigid Pavement Design
TL;DR: The coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) is a fundamental property of concrete and has been used as a variable in materials specifications or in the structural design of concrete pavements.
Aggregate orientation and segregation in asphalt concrete
TL;DR: In this article, the authors developed computer automated image analysis procedures and parameters to quantify the aggregate orientation and segregation in asphalt concrete mixes, which were used to analyze the variation of aggregate orientation during compaction using the Superpave Gyratory Compactor (SGC).
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Dynamic hydraulic conductivity (permeability) of asphalt pavements
TL;DR: In this paper, a 3D fluid flow model was developed using the lattice Boltzmann (LB) method to investigate the unsteady (dynamic) fluid flow in asphalt pavements.
