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.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Proper characterization and modeling of pavements and roadway materials are often extremely challenging due to the existence of significant material heterogencity at different length scales and the complexity and variability of damage and distress at a minute scale. Therefore, testing and modeling at multiple length scales can be ideal tools to gain accurate insight into the mechanisms and factors that affect the performance of mixture and structure scales. This special publication addresses the current advances and ongoing efforts in multiple length scale research in the area of pavement materials, mixtures, and structures. --
