This annotated bibliography is a comprehensive review of research studies published in many technical journals, books, conference proceedings, and research reports relevant to the properties of asphaltic materials and their performance. The bibliography consists of 5 separate sections; durability studies (field and laboratory studies of the oxidative and steric hardening of asphalt cements and their effect on pavement performance); characterization studies (characterization of the rheology of asphalt cements; studies of the colloidal nature and microstructure of asphaltic materials; thermal cracking studies (pavement cracking and the influence of asphalt rheology on such cracking); moisture damage (measurement of physicochemical surface properties of asphalt cements and their role in the phenomenon of pavement moisture damage); fracture, fatigue and rutting (fracture and fatigue of asphalt cements, and its relation to asphalt cement rheology). |
