Résumé : This paper presents a viscoelastic model of asphalt mixtures with the discrete element method, where the viscoelastic behaviors of asphalt mastics (fine aggregates, fines, and asphalt binder) are represented by a Burger's model. Aggregates are simulated with irregular shape particles consisting of balls bonded together by elastic contact models, and the interplaces between aggregates are filled with balls bonded with viscoelastic Burger's model to represent asphalt mastic. Digital samples were prepared with the image analysis technique. The micromechanical model was developed with four constitutive laws to represent the interactions at contacts of discrete elements (balls) within an aggregate, within mastic, between an aggregate and mastic, and between two adjacent aggregates. Each of these constitutive laws consists of three parts: a stiffness model, a slip model, and a bonding model in order to provide a relationship between the contact force and relative displacement and also in order to describe slipping and tensile strength at a particular contact. The relationship between the microscale model input and macroscale material properties was derived, and an iterative procedure was developed to fit the dynamic modulus test data of asphalt mastic with Burger's model. The favorable agreement between the discrete element prediction and the lab results on dynamic moduli and phase angles indicates that the viscoelastic discrete element model developed in this study is very capable of simulating constitutive behavior of asphalt mixtures DEWEY : 620.1 ISSN : 0733-9399 En ligne : http://ascelibrary.aip.org/getabs/servlet/GetabsServlet?prog=normal&id=JENMDT000 [...] [article] Viscoelastic model for discrete element simulation of asphalt mixtures [texte imprimé] / Yu Liu, Auteur ; Qingli Dai, Auteur ; Zhanping You, Auteur . - pp. 324-333.
