A State-of-the-Art Guide to the Mechanics of Asphalt ConcreteMechanics of Asphalt
Mechanics of Asphalt systematically covers both the
fundamentals and most recent developments in applying rational
mechanics, microstructure characterization methods, and numerical
tools to understand the behavior of asphalt concrete (AC). The
book describes the essential mathematics, mechanics, and
numerical techniques required for comprehending advanced modeling
and simulation of asphalt materials and asphalt pavements. Filled
with detailed illustrations, this authoritative volume provides
rational mechanisms to guide the development of best practices in
mix design, construction methods, and performance evaluation of
asphalt concrete.
