To investigate the fatigue performance and reflection cracking resistance of super-flexible fluid mastic asphalt (FMA ) mixtures,this study designed a super-flexible FMA- 13 mixture by the mastic flow for filling (MaFF ) method.The effects of temperature and maximum horizontal tensile displacement on the cracking resistance of both FMA- 13 and GAC- 13 (as the control ) mixtures were explored via the Overlay Tester.Additionally,small-scale accelerated pavement loading tests were conducted to analyze the effect of load cycles on the rebound modulus of the FMA- 13 mixture.A nonlinear fatigue damage model was employed to predict the fatigue life of both mixtures.The results …

To address the low efficiency and high cost of current detection methods,as well as the insufficient accumulation of pavement damage data on rural low-grade roads,this study developed a vehicle vibration data acquisition application based on smartphones and proposed a conversion method for calculating an index equivalent to the international roughness index (IIRI).Vertical acceleration signals collected during vehicle travel were proposed through high-pass filtering and denoising to calculate the vertical displacement,from which a converted I'IRI was derived.Experimental results show that although the data collected by smartphones has slightly lower accuracy than that collected by professional detection equipment,the proposed I'IRI exhibits a …

In order to address the degradation issues faced by asphalt mixtures in airport runways and highway pavement,particularly focusing on thermal stability and thermal corrosion under high-temperature conditions,this paper investigated the impact of phase change materials (PCMs ) on the thermal corrosion resistance of asphalt.Three types of PCMs were utilized to jointly modify SBS-modified asphalt,and a series of tests were conducted to systematically analyze the performance of the modified asphalt,including thermogravimetric-differential scanning calorimetry (TG-DSC ) analysis,heat storage and release performance evaluation,laboratory thermal corrosion simulation of asphalt,three-index testing,and dynamic shear rheometer (DSR ) testing.The results indicate that PCMs can effectively regulate asphalt …

In order to investigate the effect of water content and compaction degree on the attenuation characteristics of sound waves in sandy soil,this paper first determined the particle gradation of the soil through a sieving test and identified its optimal water content through a compaction test.Then,six sets of ring knife specimens of sandy soil with different water contents and nine sets with varying compaction degrees were prepared.Ultrasonic testing was carried out using the acoustic transmission method,and the received acoustic signals were subjected to time-frequency analysis to extract acoustic characteristic parameters indicative of the compaction degree.Finite element simulation was employed to explore …

To effectively deal with waste soil and reduce environmental pollution,this paper took a road engineering project in Shaoxing as the research object and conducted a cyclic triaxial incremental loading test on the undisturbed lime soil under undrained conditions to study the effects of confining pressure,cyclic stress ratio,and water immersion on its performance.The results show that when the cyclic stress ratio increases from 1 to 4,the cumulative strain and resilient strain increase rapidly in the initial loading stage,showing a trend of “stepwise” increase.The cumulative strain produced at a cyclic stress ratio of 2 is about twice that at the cyclic stress …

To improve the application of the solid waste polymer-modified high liquid limit soil as filler in the upper embankment or road bed work area,this study prepared colloidal polymer and improved materials of traditional cement by using industrial solid waste (fly ash,steel slag,etc.) and compared them with the improved high liquid limit soil to investigate its mechanical properties and economic benefits.The mechanical properties of high liquid limit soil improved by the colloidal polymer of solid waste,as well as its stability and durability when immersed in water were studied through a liquid-plastic limit test,a laboratory compaction test,a shrinkage test,a California bearing ratio …
