层间接触条件对沥青路面高温性能的影响研究

应用BISAR软件计算了不同层间接触条件下的沥青面层剪应力,通过直剪试验测定了洒布不同粘层材料的复合马歇尔试件的抗剪强度,并采用车辙试验测定复合式车辙板的DS和总变形量.研究结果表明:完全光滑的层间接触条件大幅提高了沥青面层的最大剪应力,加速沥青面层发生剪切破坏而出现车辙;粘层提高了层间抗剪强度,不同的粘层材料对层间接触条件的改善效果不同;高抗剪强度的层间接触能提高复合式车辙板的高温性能.     

基于路面使用性能评价的车辙指标研究

文章基于现有沥青路面使用性能评价规范和标准,运用简化的车辙积水模型,围绕高速公路沥青路面车辙深度主观评价标准,针对现有车辙评价模型的不足,通过采用Sigmoid函数,主要探索了车辙深度指数RDI评价模型。结果表明:结合求解的车辙内不致积水的临界车辙深度,将路面车辙深度等级划分为更精细的"轻、中、重"三个等级更加合理;优化的沥青路面车辙深度指数RDI评价模型弥补了现有车辙评价指标的不合理性;在保留现有车辙深度指数评价模型的同时,通过分析路面车辙槽的几何特征增加了车辙的其他指标,初步构建了车辙综合评价模型,对全面评价车辙的危害性及进行路面车辙的养护管理更具有实际意义。     

不同标号沥青的流变性能

借助温度扫描、频率扫描、多重应力蠕变恢复等实验,对20号、30号、50号、70号沥青及其旋转薄膜烘箱老化后沥青的流变性能进行了评价。结果表明：随着温度升高,4种沥青老化前后复数剪切模量和车辙因子均降低,并且老化后的高于老化前;在60℃温度下,无论是在低频还是高频荷载作用下,标号越低,沥青耐剪切变形能力越强,耐车辙性越好,而应力敏感性降低;标号越低的沥青,G-R参数值越大,耐开裂性则降低。     

Study on the void reduction behaviour of porous asphalt pavement based on discrete element method

The objective of this study was to analyse the void reduction behaviour of porous asphalt mixture under load. A three-dimensional discrete element model of porous asphalt mixture based on aggregate gradation and void gradation was built in PFC3D software. The parameter of the model was obtained from creep test. The rutting test was simulated using this discrete element model. And a new method was developed to obtain and analyse the void structure in discrete element model. The simulation results were compared with one of the laboratory test. The comparative analysis indicates that, the discrete element method can be used to simulate the creep response and void reduction behaviour of porous asphalt mixture. Further research shows that porosity, effective porosity, number of connected components and section pores have a good correlation with strain of porous asphalt mixture. With the increase in strain, the proportion of section pores with diameter less than 2 mm increases. In the initial stage of loading, the void reduction is the main reason for rut increment of porous asphalt mixture. In the later stage, the void structure is almost incompressible; the lateral deformation of mixture becomes the domination factor.

Developing a four‐layer system rutting model in highway

Abstract

A four‐layer rutting model was developed to account for material property changes in the progression of accumulated compressive plastic strains in all roadway layers on the basis of traffic passing in this study. This paper demonstrates that incorporating the mechanistic‐empirical approach in the prediction of rutting provides value information on the contribution of each layer to rutting in flexible pavements.     

The effect of traffic data source on deterioration rates of heavy-duty flexible pavements

The purpose of this study is to assess the effect of traffic data source (estimated vs. actual) on predicted progression rates of roughness and rutting for heavy-duty flexible pavements of rural freeways. Progression rates are predicted using calibrated HDM-4 models. The assessment is performed in terms of variations in maintenance intervention timing associated with the variations in progression rates. Time series pavement condition data (covering 3–5 years) have been collected for 7 sections of rural freeways for use in calibrating HDM-4 deterioration models. They range in length from 10 to 60.8 km and cover different traffic volumes, climate zones and subgrade soil types. For these sections, estimated annual average daily traffic (AADT), growth factors and assumed loading have been extracted from relevant database. Only six segments of these sections have Weigh-in-Motion (WIM) sites so relevant actual AADT, growth factors and axle load distributions have been extracted from WIM reports. The results of running the calibrated HDM-4 deterioration models using different traffic data show that actual traffic data from WIM sites result in higher rates of deterioration to that of estimated data for four sites, resulting in earlier intervention timing and higher present value agency cost. The other two sites have lower rates with actual data due to lower traffic loading than estimated.     

Comparing rutting of airfield pavements to simulations using Pavement Analysis Using Nonlinear Damage Approach (PANDA)

This study presents the rutting performance results of full-scale pavement test sections subjected to F-15E and C-17 aircraft wheels at two different temperatures. Pavement structures for the tests were constructed under shelter in the U.S. Army Engineer Research and Development Center's (ERDC) pavement test facility. The full-scale test results are used to validate viscoelastic, viscoplastic and hardening-relaxation constitutive relationships implemented in the Pavement Analysis Using Nonlinear Damage Approach (PANDA) model. PANDA is a mechanistic-based model which incorporates nonlinear viscoelastic, viscoplastic, hardening-relaxation, viscodamage, moisture-induced damage and ageing constitutive relationships. Results of dynamic modulus and different repeated creep-recovery laboratory tests are analysed to extract the parameters associated with viscoelastic, viscoplastic and hardening-relaxation constitutive relationships implemented in PANDA. Once calibrated, PANDA is used to predict the rutting performance observed in full-scale pavement test sections. The simulation results illustrate that PANDA is capable of predicting the rutting of airfield pavements subjected to heavy aircraft wheel loads at intermediate and high temperatures. It is shown that PANDA successfully predicts the effect of shear flow and upheaval at the edges of the wheel. The data from simulation suggested that PANDA, once calibrated, can provide insight into the critical locations of tensile and compressive stresses within the pavement structure. PANDA simulations not only provide a tool for evaluating existing structures, but also can be used in designing more sustainable pavement structures and materials.
