Fatigue performance of long-term aged crumb rubber modified bitumen containing warm-mix additives

TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of crumb rubber modifier (CRM) content (5, 10, 15% and 22% by weight of base bitumen) and warm-mix additives on the binder fatigue performance were investigated.

Crack Length Based Healing Characterisation of Bitumen at Different Levels of Cracking Damage

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors quantified the healing and the damage levels of asphalt binders at different damage levels by quantifying the crack length (CL) in binder samples generated by rotational shear fatigue loads in strain-controlled dynamic shear rheometer (DSR) tests.

An Equation-Based Multiphysics Modelling Framework for Oxidative Ageing of Asphalt Pavements

TL;DR: In this paper, a multiphysics and time-dependent finite element model was developed to solve the issues of high nonlinearity and circular dependency of oxidative ageing in the asphalt pavements.

Energy-based mechanistic approach for crack growth characterization of asphalt binder

TL;DR: In this paper, an energy-based mechanistic approach is applied to determine crack length and the pseudo J-integral is adopted to calculate crack growth rate in asphalt binder, which has a significant influence on fatigue cracking resistance of asphalt pavements.

Modification and Validation of Linear Amplitude Sweep Test for Binder Fatigue Specification

TL;DR: The linear amplitude sweep (LAS) test as discussed by the authors uses cyclic loading with systematically increasing load amplitudes to accelerate damage and provides sufficient data for analysis in less than 30 min.

Energy-Derived, Damage-Based Failure Criterion for Fatigue Testing:

TL;DR: In this paper, a method is presented for examining dissipated energy to select a consistent level of material behavior that is indicative of the damage accumulation in the mixture, showing the similarity between the constant stress and constant strain modes of testing and providing the potential for unifying the now phenomenological description of fatigue.

Evaluation of fatigue criteria for asphalt binders

TL;DR: In this paper, a time sweep using the dynamic shear rheometer (DSR) has been proposed as an alternative test method for developing load-associated fatigue information for asphalt binders.
