Development of a combined micromechanics & damage mechanics model for the design of asphalt pavements

Tabakovic, Amir ; McNally, Ciaran ; Sorelli, L. G. ; Gibney, Amanda ; Gilchrist, M. D. (2006-04)

Asphalt is a complex, heterogeneous material that is composed of differently sized aggregates, binder and air voids: in other words, it is a particulate reinforced composite. The focus of the present work is to investigate ...
Development of a recycled polymer modified binder for use in stone mastic asphalt

Casey, Donnchadh ; McNally, Ciaran ; Gibney, Amanda ; Gilchrist, M. D. (Elsevier, 2008-08)

The number of commercial vehicles using Irish roads has increased considerably in recent years, leading to higher demands being placed on pavement materials and increased use of polymer modified bitumens. This has also ...
Fatigue resistance of bituminous layers incorporating reclaimed asphalt pavement

Tabakovic, Amir ; Gibney, Amanda ; Gilchrist, M. D. ; McNally, Ciaran (2006-02)

This paper presents the results of an investigation into the fatigue performance of a 20mm Binder Course Asphalt Pavement Mix incorporating Recycled Asphalt Pavement (RAP). For the study, a series of binder course mixes ...
The influence of recycled asphalt pavement on 20mm binder course mix performance

Tabakovic, Amir ; Gibney, Amanda ; Gilchrist, M. D. ; McNally, Ciaran (2006-10)

This paper presents the results of ongoing research on the mechanical performance of a 20mm binder course asphalt pavement mix incorporating recycled asphalt pavement (RAP). A series of binder course mixes were designed ...
The influence of recycled asphalt pavement on the fatigue performance of asphalt concrete base courses

Tabakovic, Amir ; Gibney, Amanda ; McNally, Ciaran ; Gilchrist, M. D. (American Society of Civil Engineers, 2010-06)

This paper presents the physical properties of Recycled Asphalt Pavement (RAP) and its influence on the mechanical performance of a binder course asphalt pavement mix. A series of binder course mixes were designed containing ...
Modelling the quasi-static behaviour of bituminous material using a cohesive zone model

Tabakovic, Amir ; Karac, Aleksandar ; Ivankovic, Alojz ; Gibney, Amanda ; McNally, Ciaran ; Gilchrist, M. D. (Elsevier, 2010-09)

This paper investigates the applicability of a cohesive zone model for simulating the performance of bituminous material subjected to quasistatic loading. The Dugdale traction law was implemented within a finite volume ...
