Modeling and Design of Flexible Pavements and Materials /

This textbook lays out the state of the art for modeling of asphalt concrete as the major structural component of flexible pavements.The text adopts a pedagogy in which a scientific approach, based on materials science and continuum mechanics, predicts the performance of any configuration of flexibl...
