Relative pavement performance for dual and wide-based tyre assemblies using a finite element method (2017)
Journal Article
Casey, D., Airey, G., & Grenfell, J. (2017). Relative pavement performance for dual and wide-based tyre assemblies using a finite element method. Journal of Testing and Evaluation, 45(6), https://doi.org/10.1520/JTE20160589

There is a need to assess the realistic tire contact pressure created by a tire in contact with a pavement. The contact pressure is a function of tire type, axle loading, and tire inflation pressure (TiP). The research carried out considered dual tir...

Laboratory evaluation of Rediset modified bitumen based on rheology and adhesion properties (2017)
Journal Article
Zhang, J., Airey, G., Grenfell, J., & Yao, Z. (2017). Laboratory evaluation of Rediset modified bitumen based on rheology and adhesion properties. Construction and Building Materials, 152, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.conbuildmat.2017.07.037

Warm mix asphalt (WMA) could significantly reduce the production temperature of asphalt mixtures. Lower production temperature meaning reduced fossil fuel consumption and greenhouse gas emission which in turn avoid environmental pollution in the road...

Structural design of pavements incorporating foamed bitumen mixtures (2017)
Journal Article
Kuna, K., Airey, G., & Thom, N. (in press). Structural design of pavements incorporating foamed bitumen mixtures. Proceedings of the ICE - Construction Materials, https://doi.org/10.1680/jcoma.16.00039

This paper presents a rational structural design methodology termed the ‘cumulative damage approach’ for road, port and airport pavements incorporating cold bituminous mixtures with foamed bitumen. This has been developed along with a laboratory test... Read More about Structural design of pavements incorporating foamed bitumen mixtures.
