Moisture susceptibility of asphalt mixtures, Part 1: mechanisms
International Journal of Pavement Engineering, 2008The detrimental effects of water in asphalt mixtures and its manifestation as distresses in asphalt pavements were first recognised in the 1930s and have been studied extensively during the last 35 years. This deterioration process, referred to as moisture damage, is generally defined as the degradation of the mechanical properties of the material due ...

Moisture Susceptibility of Free Violin Plates
The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 1968Studies of the resonances of free violin plates indicate that changes in the moisture content of the wood can affect the amplitude and other characteristics of the so-called “main tap tone resonance” to a greater or lesser degree, depending on the fine tuning built into the wood of each plate.

Evaluation of Superpave Moisture Susceptibility Considering Uncertainty
Journal of Testing and Evaluation, 2019Abstract The existing Superpave method of evaluating moisture susceptibility is deterministic, relying only on the mean values. This technical note presents a new method for evaluating moisture susceptibility considering uncertainty. The method considers the uncertainties of the four measured properties (thickness and maximum load) of ...

Performance Prediction and Moisture Susceptibility of Anisotropic Pavement Foundations
Paving Materials and Pavement Analysis, 2010Significant work has been done by the International Center for Aggregate Research (ICAR) to identify the effects of the anisotropic nature of compacted base courses on the stress, strain, and permanent deformation characteristics of pavement foundations.

Laboratory Study on Moisture Susceptibility of Dense Graded Mixes
Journal of Transportation Engineering, 2012Moisture damage is the degradation of the mechanical properties of the material attributable to the presence of moisture in its microstructure. To enhance the life of bituminous pavements, it is necessary to understand moisture’s damage on pavements and to evaluate the effects of hydrated lime as moisture damage resisting agents.

Evaluation of moisture susceptibility tests for warm mix asphalts
Construction and Building Materials, 2016Abstract Moisture sensitivity has been identified as an area of concern for warm mix asphalt (WMA) mixtures. To evaluate WMA’s influence on moisture damage, three field-produced mixes were selected for evaluation. All WMA mixes studied used the same chemical WMA additive.

Moisture Susceptibility of Superpave Mixtures with Varying Binder Contents
Airfield and Highway Pavements 2015, 2015The process control for the hot-mix asphalt mixtures (HMA) by the Kansas Department of Transportation (KDOT) requires each lot of HMA be produced within ±0.6% of the design binder content. Recent reviews indicate that HMA lots are being produced consistently with lower binder contents. This situation has been exacerbated by the use of higher proportion

Moisture susceptibility of asphalt mixtures: A Literature Review
2017Moisture susceptibility of asphalt mixtures, generally called stripping, has been known as the biggest performance concern influencing the durability of asphalt pavements. Moisture induced damage of asphalt pavement is an extremely complicated mode of distress that leads to the loss of stiffness and structural strength of the mixture and even ...

Evaluation of Moisture Susceptibility of Nanoclay-Modified Asphalt Binders
Application of Nanotechnology in Pavements, Geological Disasters, and Foundation Settlement Control Technology, 2014Due to an increasing rate of traffic volume and truck loads in recent years, neat asphalt binders are often modified with expensive polymers for increased stiffness. Nanoclays, conversely, are relatively inexpensive and naturally abundant, and have favorable intrinsic properties (e.g., nanoscopic size and surface area).
