Measurement and Evaluation for Interbedded Pore Water Pressure of Saturated Asphalt Pavement under Vehicle Loading

Dynamic water scouring damage is the main cause of pavement structure damage, and the main reason for dynamic water scouring damage is the rapid change of pore water pressure caused by vehicle load. Numerical simulation is a commonly used pore water pressure test technology, but its accuracy is not...

description Dynamic water scouring damage is the main cause of pavement structure damage, and the main reason for dynamic water scouring damage is the rapid change of pore water pressure caused by vehicle load. Numerical simulation is a commonly used pore water pressure test technology, but its accuracy is not high, and the test data are very different to actual values. In this study, a pore water pressure test method is designed, which has the advantages of less disturbance to the pavement structure and the measured data are closer to the true pore water pressure value of the pavement structure. Measurement data show that the pore water pressure gradually increases with increasing vehicle speed, and the pore water pressure response time becomes shorter. The pore water pressure response time is greater than vehicle loading time. Moreover, the phenomenon of periodic decay of pore water pressure with time is analyzed based on hydrodynamic water hammer theory. The empirical formula of maximum positive pressure with speed and the empirical formula of <i>Abp</i> at different speeds were obtained.
