Analysis of the Performance of Flexible Pavement under the Effect of Wheel and Thermal Loads

One of the major sources of distress in roads is the cracks that appear in flexible asphalt pavements. Combined wheel and thermal load induced cracking in the form of bottom-up and top-down fatigue cracking.In this paper, combined effect of wheel loads and temperature is considered in finite element...
