Development of the simplified method to evaluate dynamic mechanical analysis data on asphalt-aggregate mixtures

Creator:

Ab-Wahab, Yunus Bin

Abstract:

Testing of asphalt binders and asphalt-aggregate mixtures using dynamic mechanical analysis is becoming popular with improvements in high-speed computers, precision equipment, and computer software. Researchers are trying to describe the behavior of asphalt binders and asphalt-aggregate mixtures in terms of their time- and temperature-dependent linear viscoelastic behavior. The objectives of...

Development of a mechanistic overlay design procedure for flexible pavements

Creator:

Zhou, Haiping

Abstract:

This dissertation describes the development of a mechanistic overlay design procedure. The mechanistic analysis represents a new trend in both new pavement and overlay design. The greatest advantage of the mechanistic pavement analysis is that it considers the fundamental characteristics of materials to be used, is capable of considering changes...

Behavior of gypsum-sheathed cold-formed steel wall stud panels

Creator:

Lee, Young-ki

Abstract:

This study consists of three parts: 1) Part A: Limiting Height Evaluation for Composite Wall Tests, 2) Part B: Mid-Span Deflection Evaluation for Composite Wall Tests, and 3) Part C: Nominal Axial Strength Evaluation for Wall-Braced Wall Stud Columns. The purpose of Part A is to develop experimentally-based limiting heights...
