Advances in Civil Engineering, Volume 2023, Issue 1, 2023., 2023 Growing traffic loads, soaring summer temperatures, and moisture damage will render conventional asphalt binder insufficient to maintain the performance standards of asphalt concrete pavement. Thus, it is necessary to modify the virgin asphalt using various polymers or nanomaterials.

Structural Control and Health Monitoring, Volume 2023, Issue 1, 2023., 2023 Permanent deformation (rutting) is one of the typical failure modes of asphalt pavement with a semirigid base in high‐temperature areas. To address issues of pavement structure deformation and remaining life prediction, a method of combining accelerated pavement testing and finite element (FE) simulation was proposed.

Advances in Civil Engineering, Volume 2021, Issue 1, 2021., 2021 Rutting is the most common distress of the asphalt pavement with a semirigid base, mainly when located on a steep longitudinal slope. Previous studies have shown that shear stress is the leading cause of rutting. Therefore, it is essential to analyze the distribution characteristics of shear stress to evaluate pavement rutting performance. Firstly, the
