Discrete Element Analysis of Indirect Tensile Fatigue Test of Asphalt Mixture [PDF]
In order to investigate the damage to microstructure and some other micromechanical responses during a fatigue test on asphalt mixture, Particle Flow Code (PFC) was used to reconstruct a two-dimensional discrete element model of asphalt mixture, based on

Impact of Engine Oil as a Rejuvenator on the Properties of RAP Containing Asphalt Mixtures [PDF]
In order to build roads in more sustainable and environmentally friendly ways, reclaimed asphalt pavement (RAP) must be used in large quantities. Using RAP, new asphalt can be produced with a small amount of raw materials, thus reducing the energy ...
