A Study of the Semi-Perpetual Pavement Performance in Queensland

open access: yes, 2012
This paper presents the performance characteristics of a long-term pavement performance (LTPP) site with pavement constructed with semi perpetual pavements. The design life of the perpetual pavement is normally specified as 40 years. To achieve a 40 year

Fiber Optic Sensors in Asphalt Pavements: Investigation of the Sensor and the Asphalt Pavement

open access: yes
Abstract Implementing fiber optic sensors (FOS) in asphalt pavements provides a wealth of data with multiple applications. Successful integration of FOS into asphalt pavements depends on two key requirements. First, the sensor embedded in the asphalt must withstand the paving process without damage.

Evaluation of Hot Mix Asphalt Moisture Sensitivity Using the Nottingham Asphalt Test Equipment;TR-483, July 2005

open access: yes, 2005
Moisture sensitivity of Hot Mix Asphalt (HMA) mixtures, generally called stripping, is a major form of distress in asphalt concrete pavement. It is characterized by the loss of adhesive bond between the asphalt binder and the aggregate (a failure of the ...

Advances in flame retardancy of asphalt pavement: A review

open access: yesAdvanced Industrial and Engineering Polymer Research
Asphalt pavement is widely applied to the surface in high-grade highway tunnels due to its prominent preponderance in road performance. However, asphalt is flammable as the binder material to adhere the aggregates and other additives, resulting that a ...

Validation of the New Mix Design Process for Cold In-Place Rehabilitation Using Foamed Asphalt, 2007

open access: yes, 2007
Asphalt pavement recycling has grown dramatically over the last few years as a viable technology to rehabilitate existing asphalt pavements. Iowa's current Cold In-place Recycling (CIR) practice utilizes a generic recipe specification to define the ...

Laboratory verification of predicted permanent deformation in asphalt materials following climate change. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
In the past a change in temperature of 5°C most often occurred over intervals of thousands of years. According to estimates by the IPCC, in the XXI century is expected an increase in average temperatures in Europe between 1.8 and 4.0°C in the best case ...
