  1. 1. Towards a Uniform Fracture Mechanics-Based Framework for Flexible Pavement Design

    University essay from KTH/Väg- och banteknik

    Author : Prabir Das; [2009]
    Keywords : Crack growth; Low temperature cracking; Fracture mechanics; Dissipated creep strain energy; Asphalt pavements; Energy Ratio;

    Abstract : 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.
