TRB recorded presentations in July 2015 that provided an overview of applying viscoelastic models to decipher and unify asphalt stiffness measures. This installment is the third in a series of webinars that focused on the following goals:
- Reviewing mechanistic models for application
- Communicating the advantages of models
- Increasing the broader understanding of the functioning components in these models
- Demonstrating how these models can solve specific problems faced by the asphalt materials and pavements community
In this installment, practical and relevant applications for linear viscoelastic models in pavement and pavement materials engineering were discussed from the context of asphalt stiffness.
Basics of Asphalt Modeling Parts 1 and 2 took place in 2012 and are available as recorded webinars. You may watch these recordings at your convenience.
