Abstract

ABSTRACT: The present research study investigates the fatigue resistance of asphalt binders modified with carbon nanoparticles. Three different modified bitumens containing three different dosages of carbon nanoparticles were tested to capture fatigue properties under the concept of viscoelastic continuum damage mechanics through frequency sweep and linear amplitude sweep tests. Results show that adding carbon nanoparticles can enhance the fatigue life of neat asphalt binders. © 2016 Taylor & Francis Group, LLC.
