Characterization of permanent deformation properties of densely-compacted unbound granular materials subjected to cyclic loading [PDF]
To investigate the long-term deformation properties of unbound granular materials (UGM) that are ordinarily adopted to construct subgrade for high-speed railway, a series of medium-sized cyclic triaxial tests were performed to obtain the relationship ...

Pavement Analysis with the Consideration of Unbound Granular Material Nonlinearity
Accurate pavement design and evaluation requires the execution of response analysis. Pavement materials’ behavior does not necessarily conform to the assumptions of the multi-linear elastic theory usually adopted during pavement analysis.

Resilient behavior of unbound granular material: A review
When a vehicle moves over a flexible pavement structure, it generates loading and unloading cycles that produce recoverable (resilient) and permanent (plastic) deformations in the granular base and subbase layers, which are made of unbound granular ...

POSSIBILITIES OF DESIGNING UNBOUND BASE LAYERS OF FLEXIBLE ROAD PAVEMENTS REGARDING THE RESULTS OF THE STUDY OF DEFORMATION BEHAVIOR OF GRANULAR MIXTURES [PDF]
Introduction. The introduction to the paper highlights the role of the modeling of deformation behavior of unbound granular mixtures (UGMs) under repeated mechanical loading as the base aspect of designing flexible road pavement with an unbound base ...

Shakedown of unbound granular material [PDF]
Compacted unbound granular materials are extensively used as sub-layer in pavement design. Most pavement design guides assume that they are responsible for the degradation and deformation of the roads and railways that they support. Biaxial tests are usually employed to investigate the elasto-plastic response of these materials to cyclic loading.
