1. Implementation of the SuperPave IDT analysis procedure
University essay from KTH/Väg- och banteknikAbstract : Cracking is one of the most severe distress modes of asphaltpavements. Thus characterising the fracture resistance properties of asphaltmixtures is the key issue for improving the performance relatedmixture design. READ MORE

2. Towards a Uniform Fracture Mechanics-Based Framework for Flexible Pavement Design
University essay from KTH/Väg- och banteknikAbstract : Cracking is an important potential failure mechanism for pavement structures. By combining a strain energy-based fracture criterion with conventional fracture mechanics based on the Energy Ratio (ER) concept, crack growth in asphalt can be investigated, and a low temperature Thermal Cracking model (TCMODEL) can be introduced.
