Asphalt aging is inevitable to the asphalt pavement performance, which will lead asphalt to hardening gradually and becoming brittle. Therefore, aging progress shortens the life of asphalt, but the study on polymer asphalt improves the phenomenon. The present situation on aging of polymer modified asphalt is summarized and the aging mechanism of modified asphalts is analyzed in the paper. Otherwise, the research progress at home and abroad on the aging properties of modified asphalt is introduced by a series of characterization techniques, which include mechanics technique, rheology technique, FTIR, GPC and so on

Styrofoam waste presents the environment issue because it is difficult to decompose. As an effort to recycle this pollutant, styrofoam can be utilized as an additive in asphalt concrete mixture. The use of additives aims to create a flexible pavement layer having good performance and meet the requirements. The purpose of this study is to find out whether the addition of styrofoam can improve the quality of asphalt mixtures, and look for alternative additives that can increase asphalt pavement performance. In this study, researchers used food container styrofoam as an addition and incorforated into Asphalt Concrete Wearing Course (AC-WC) mixture. The styrofoam content was 6.5%; 6.75%; 7% ; 7.25%; and 7.5% of asphalt weight. The optimum asphalt contentused is 5.5%. The value of the optimum stability was 3126,002 kg, found at 7.25% of styrofoam content. The best results of Marshall test was obtained at 6.5% of styrofoam content  with stability value  1362,045 kg, VIM value 4,96%, VMA 15,025%, VFA 67,800%, flow 3,44 mm, and MQ 416,338 kg / mm.

Grey Relation

Pavement performance prediction is a crucial issue in big data maintenance. This paper develops a hybrid grey relation analysis (GRA) and support vector machine regression (SVR) technique to predict pavement performance. The prediction model can solve the shortcomings of the traditional model including a single consideration factor, a short prediction period, and easy overfitting. GAR is employed in selecting the main factors affecting the performance of asphalt pavement. The SVR is performed to predict the performance. Finally, the data collected from the weather station installed on Guangyun Expressway were adopted to verify the validity of the GRA-SVR model. Meanwhile, the contrast with the grey model (GM (1, 1)), genetic algorithm optimization BP[[parms resize(1),pos(50,50),size(200,200),bgcol(156)]]081%, −0.823%, 1.270%, and −4.569%, respectively. The study concluded that the nonlinear and multivariate prediction model established by GRA-SVR has higher precision and operability, which can be used in long-period pavement performance prediction.

Compaction Processes

Asphalt mixtures are subjected to short-term aging during the production, placement, and compaction processes. Proper evaluation of asphalt pavement performance relies on the accurate characterization of asphalt mixtures during the design stage. In this study, three different loose asphalt mixtures often used in Qatar were evaluated to develop a laboratory short-term aging procedure. Sample mixtures 1 and 3 were collected from a construction site, while mixture 2 was obtained from an asphalt plant. Virgin aggregates and binders were also collected to reproduce the mixtures in the laboratory. Laboratory-produced mixtures were conditioned at 135 °C using various time durations. The mechanical properties of laboratory-produced mixtures were compared to those of mixtures produced on site. The results of the mechanical and binder testing demonstrated that the proper short-term aging protocol for asphalt mixtures often used in road construction in the State of Qatar would involve heating asphalt mixtures for 4 h at 135 °C before laboratory compaction.
