Book Multi scale Approach to Design Sustainable Asphalt Paving Materials

Download or read book Multi scale Approach to Design Sustainable Asphalt Paving Materials written by Evan W. Holcombe and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The continuous use of recycled material in asphalt pavement mixtures, specifically Reclaimed Asphalt Pavement (RAP), Recycled Asphalt Shingles (RAS) and Re-Refined Engine Oil Bottoms (REOB), have developed an increasing need to further evaluate the performance of these mixtures at the micro and macro-levels, as the use of such materials reduces cost of virgin materials and energy consumption. Although asphalt binder, including recycled or additive materials, may meet a desired performance grade (PG) using macro-scale tests, they may lack critical nano-mechanical properties that largely affect long-term performance, such as adhesion and diffusive efficiency between virgin and recycled binders. These commonly overlooked properties can correlate with performance behaviors such as fatigue and low temperature cracking during field performance.

Book Modeling and Design of Flexible Pavements and Materials

Download or read book Modeling and Design of Flexible Pavements and Materials written by Dallas N. Little and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-09-25 with total page 702 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This textbook lays out the state of the art for modeling of asphalt concrete as the major structural component of flexible pavements. The text adopts a pedagogy in which a scientific approach, based on materials science and continuum mechanics, predicts the performance of any configuration of flexible roadways subjected to cyclic loadings. The authors incorporate state-of the-art computational mechanics to predict the evolution of material properties, stresses and strains, and roadway deterioration. Designed specifically for both students and practitioners, the book presents fundamentally complex concepts in a clear and concise way that aids the roadway design community to assimilate the tools for designing sustainable roadways using both traditional and innovative technologies.

Book Testing and Characterization of Sustainable Innovative Bituminous Materials and Systems

Download or read book Testing and Characterization of Sustainable Innovative Bituminous Materials and Systems written by Manfred N. Partl and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-02-01 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents the detailed results of five task groups of the RILEM technical committee TC 237-SIB on Testing and Characterization of Sustainable Innovative Bituminous Materials and Systems. It concentrates on specific new topics in asphalt binder and mixture testing, dealing with new developments in asphalt testing, in particular also in view of new innovative bituminous materials, such as hot and cold recycled mixtures, grid reinforced pavements and recycled Reclaimed Asphalt Pavements (RAP), where test methods developed for traditional asphalt concrete are not a priori applicable. The main objective is providing a basis for pre-standardization by comparing different test methods and showing ways for fundamental improvements. Thus, the book also points the way for a further advanced chemo-physical understanding of materials and their role in pavement systems relying on fundamental material properties and suitable models for describing and predicting the intrinsic mechanisms that determine the material behavior.
