Abstract: Topics discussed in this proceedings include: Modeling and simulations of asphalt concrete; Interactions between aggregates, mastics, and voids; Use of finite-element-method and discrete-element method; Continuum approaches including nonlinear viscoelastic analysis and temperature dependency; Pavements stress and strain analysis; Laboratory characterization of modified asphalt concrete; Pavement fatigue analysis; Tire-pavement interaction; and Coefficient of thermal expansion on concrete for rigid pavement design. This publication will be valuable to geotechnical engineers, pavement engineers, and all those involved in the field of pavement mechanics.
