Crack-Healing of Asphalt Pavement Materials

This book presents the state-of-the-art report based on a comprehensive literature review completed by the RILEM Technical Committee 278-CHA: Crack-healing of Asphalt Pavement Materials. The structure of the volume includes an introduction chapter, four technical chapters, and a conclusion chapter. The contents cover several topics such as mechanisms driving loss of performance and restoration of asphalt pavement materials, intrinsic self-healing of asphalt binders and mixtures, extrinsic self-healing technologies, experimental methods, modeling approaches for the analysis, and estimation of self-healing in asphalt materials. The book benefits academics and practitioners interested in asphalt materials and flexible pavement design.
