Title: Developing a Framework for Standardization of Interlayer Bond of Asphalt Pavements
Accession Number: 01373246
Record Type: Component
Abstract: The main goal of this research was to develop a framework for understanding the mechanisms that operate and govern the mechanical behavior of the interlayer bond between the layers of asphalt pavements, mainly the top asphalt layer and the one immediately underneath it. One of the basic requirements for developing the framework was the understanding and determination of the main mechanisms that govern the interlayer bond. Therefore, an extensive literature review followed by a comprehensive experimental modeling was carried out by using an idealized model material. Furthermore, the effects of the critical parameters were determined and quantified. This was achieved by a parametric experimental study which investigated the effect of moisture, temperature and the gap width between the shearing rings on the bond strength. After understanding the mechanisms and the effects of the critical parameters, a model using artificial neural network technique was evaluated and the contributing variables and their influences on the interlayer bond were predicted.
