ROSE bitumen: Mesoscopic model of bitumen and bituminous mixtures [PDF]
We present a mesoscopic model for bitumen and bituminous mixtures. The model, which is based on dissipative particle dynamics, consists of different dynamical entities that represent the different characteristic time scales. Through the stress relaxation function, the mechanical properties of the model are investigated.
