Water flow simulation and analysis in HMA microstructure

This paper introduces a new method for reconstructing virtual two-dimensional (2-D) microstructure of hot mix asphalt (HMA). Based on the method, the gradation of coarse aggregates and the film thickness of the asphalt binder can be defined by the user. The HMA microstructure then serves as the inpu...
