Study on Ice Breaking on Crumbed Rubber Asphalt Pavement Based on Self-Stress Method

Article Preview

Abstract:

Ice layer on pavement surface was a serious problem for highway traffic safety. Crumbed rubber asphalt mixture was an effective way to drive ice layer away from surface. Through wheel test asphalt mixture specimen with ice layer at negtive temperature, the paper studied ice breaking performance of asphalt mixtures containing different amount crumbed rubber. Pendulumlike friction test BPN after wheel test was taken as an performance index of crumber rubber asphalt breaking ice. Results shown that the quantity of crumbed rubber and the performance of ice breaking had good linear relationship and more rubber content had better slide resistance recover speed at same wheel arround number.Through numerial model of pavement covered ice based on FEM method, the paper had analyzed the relationship between elastic modulus of crumbed rubber pavement and ice stress-strain on pavement, and put forward the mechanism of ice breaking.
