Abstract
The tire-road contact friction system has been widely studied. However, the traditional theoretical model of pavement anti-sliding does not pay attention to the influence of temperature on the tire-road interface friction system. The purpose of this paper is to simulate the adhesive friction process of rubber asphalt mortar under different temperature and different phase conditions by molecular dynamics simulation, so as to explain the adhesive friction mechanism of rubber asphalt mortar. In this study, the molecular model of rubber asphalt mortar with rubber powder content of 0%, 10%, 20% and 30% was first constructed by Materials Studio software. Secondly, the molecular dynamics simulation was carried out by COMPASS II force field, and the glass transition temperature, bulk modulus and Young's modulus of the molecular model of rubber asphalt mortar were calculated. Then, the variation characteristics of the friction coefficient index of the rubber-asphalt mortar-aggregate three-layer friction pair model with temperature were simulated, and the simulation results of elastic modulus and adhesion work were comprehensively analyzed. The results showed that the glass transition temperature of the molecular model of rubber asphalt mortar is between -20°C and 0°C, and the bulk modulus and Young's modulus of rubber asphalt mortar show an upward trend with the increase of rubber powder content and temperature. The friction coefficient of the rubber-asphalt mortar-aggregate three-layer friction pair model increases with the increase of temperature and rubber powder content. The results of Young's modulus and adhesion work simulation show that as the temperature increases, the phase state of the rubber asphalt mortar changes, and the adhesion increases, resulting in an increase in the friction coefficient of the rubber asphalt mortar. In addition, the simulated and predicted values of the friction coefficient of the rubber-asphalt mortar-aggregate three-layer friction pair model with temperature change are well fitted, and the maximum difference is 0.32.
