This article presents the results of the analysis of the effect of aging on the properties of asphalt and asphalt mixtures. The objective of this study was to compare the properties of the original asphalt and aged asphalt ...

Microwave heating of asphalt mixtures containing metal fibers is a promising technology for asphalt pavement rehabilitation. The main characteristic of these types of mixtures is that they have the ability to self-heal ...

Cracking is a common failure in concrete asphalt mixtures due to fatigue and low temperatures. For centuries fibers have been used to reinforce materials and short and long fibers have extensive use in Portland cement ...

The concept of self-healing asphalt mixtures by bitumen temperature increase has been used by researchers to create an asphalt mixture with crack-healing properties by microwave or induction heating. Metals, normally steel ...

The relationship between the rutting performance of dense asphalt concretes and the low shear viscosity (LSV) of different asphalt binders was analysed in a previous work. A LSV limit was found for the original asphalt to ...
