Investigating the Impact of Material Properties on Mechanistic‐Empirical Flexible Pavement Design Using AASHTOWare Pavement ME Design

open access: yesAdvances in Materials Science and Engineering, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
This study systematically investigates the influence of various material and soil property inputs on the mechanistic‐empirical (ME) design of flexible pavements, utilizing the AASHTOWare Pavement ME Design software. An experimental design framework, specifically the Plackett–Burman design, was employed to analyze the effects of eleven critical ...

Evaluation of the Durability of a Waste Plastic–Enhanced Asphalt Road Pavement in Extreme Future London Weather Conditions

open access: yesAdvances in Materials Science and Engineering, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Climate change is increasing the frequency and intensity of extreme weather events, posing challenges to the durability of asphalt road pavement systems. Incorporating waste plastics, such as polyethylene terephthalate (PET), into asphalt mixtures has been proposed as a potential approach to reduce bitumen demand and modify mechanical performance ...

Evalution of Hot Mix Asphalt Moisture Sensitivity Using the Nottingham Asphalt Test Equipment, July 2005 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Moisture sensitivity of Hot Mix Asphalt (HMA) mixtures, generally called stripping, is a major form of distress in asphalt concrete pavement. It is characterized by the loss of adhesive bond between the asphalt binder and the aggregate (a failure of the ...

A Unified MARS‐NRBO Model for Predicting Dynamic Modulus of Asphalt Concretes and Stone Matrix Asphalts Produced by Hot and Warm Technologies

open access: yesAdvances in Materials Science and Engineering, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
The dynamic modulus (|E∗|) is the key parameter to characterize the viscoelastic behavior of asphalt mixtures, making it an essential component of the mechanistic‐empirical pavement design guide (MEPDG). However, direct laboratory measurement of |E∗| is time‐consuming and costly, motivating the development of reliable predictive models.

Evolution of clogging of porous asphalt concrete in the seepage process through integration of computer tomography, computational fluid dynamics, and discrete element method

open access: yesComputer-Aided Civil and Infrastructure Engineering, Volume 40, Issue 12, Page 1652-1674, 9 May 2025.
Abstract The longevity of porous asphalt pavement is inevitably compromised by the clogging of voids by various particles, leading to a degradation in its drainage function. Numerical simulations with real pore structures were used to investigate the clogging behavior of porous asphalt concrete (PAC) to clearly and intuitively understand its void ...
