Reducing the cooling period of newly laid asphalt overlays could help airport authorities to quickly open remediated pavements to traffic. This paper reviews four strategies for a reduced cooling period, prior to trafficking, of newly-placed asphalt...

The quantification of moisture susceptibility has been a major concern for researchers as it adversely affects the performance of asphalt pavements. Several methods have been developed to assess bond strength using asphalt mixtures in loose and compa...
