Micromechanical modelling of complex shear modulus of crumb rubber modified bitumen
Materials & Design, 2020 Crumb rubber modified bitumen (CRMB) can be considered as a binary composite system where rubber particles are embedded in the bitumen matrix. The bitumen-rubber interaction process (mainly swelling) significantly changes the mechanical properties of ...
