Morphology of Asphalt Mixture Rheological Master Curves
Publication: Journal of Materials in Civil Engineering
Volume 22, Issue 8
Abstract
Most asphalt mixture rheology studies were limited to condition tests and condition-evaluation indices, which cannot describe the changes in mechanical properties along with changing external conditions. The full-temperature–full-frequency master curves of rheological functions for asphalt mixtures were obtained by dynamic shearing test and time-temperature-shift formulation. The Christensen-Anderson-Marasteanu rheological model and morphology theory were combined to obtain the morphological characteristics of the rheological master curves. These morphological parameters can better describe the pavement performances of asphalt mixtures.
