摘要: |
A mechanistic pavement analysis with laboratory fatigue cracking and rutting models was validated with the response and performance measured from asphalt pavements. Asphalt pavements with different air void contents were tested using the third-scale Model Mobile Loading Simulator (MMLS3). The fatigue life prediction algorithm adopts a cumulative damage analysis; the permanent deformation prediction algorithm uses a sublayering method. These algorithms, which are similar to the ones adopted in the NCHRP 1-37A "Mechanistic-Empirical Pavement Design Guide" (MEPDG), account for the loading rate and temperature variation along the depth of the pavements. The major difference between the algorithms used in this study and the ones in the MEPDG is that the difference in loading frequencies between the laboratory test method and the MMLS3 test was accounted for in this study using the time-temperature superposition principle with growing damage. The predictions of fatigue life and permanent deformation growth in the MMLS3 tests revealed that the proposed algorithms do a reasonable job in predicting these parameters, although improved predictions may be achieved by adopting more fundamental models. It is expected that the resulting alliance between the accelerated pavement test, laboratory material level test, and performance models can serve as a cornerstone for the successful estimation of the service life of in situ pavements. |
