Fracture investigation and acoustic emission characteristics of semi-flexible pavement materials under different temperatures
Semi-flexible pavement (SFP) exhibits superior rutting resistance, yet its cracking performance remains a critical concern due to inadequate interfacial bonding between the porous asphalt mixture (PAM) and the grouting material. To address this challenge, this study investigated fracture behavior and interfacial enhancement strategies for SFP through silane coupling agent (KH550) modification. Fracture performance was assessed via semi-circular bending (SCB) tests at −10℃ and 25℃, combined with acoustic emission (AE) monitoring and microstructural characterization. Results revealed that KH550 modification increased stress intensity factors by 10.7 % and 8.9 % at low (−10℃) and intermediate (25℃) temperatures, respectively, while enhancing total fracture energy by 55.1 % and 29.3 % under corresponding conditions. AE analysis highlighted distinct failure mechanisms: low-temperature (−10℃) fractures exhibited brittle failure with concentrated high-energy AE events, whereas the elevated temperature (25℃) promoted plastic deformation, suppressing AE activity. Gaussian Mixture Model (GMM) clustering and GMM + Support Vector Machine (SVM) clustering of RA and AF data identified tensile cracking as the predominant failure mode, with KH550 further amplifying tensile crack ratios at −10℃ due to interfacial adhesion-induced brittleness. Scanning Electron Microscopy and Energy-Dispersive X-ray Spectroscopy (SEM-EDS) confirmed KH550′s interfacial enhancement, demonstrating denser hydration products and elemental redistribution at the asphalt-grout interface. These microstructural improvements correlated with macro-scale performance gains, where an optimized interfacial transition zone facilitated efficient stress transfer and crack resistance.
期刊介绍:
Theoretical and Applied Fracture Mechanics'' aims & scopes have been re-designed to cover both the theoretical, applied, and numerical aspects associated with those cracking related phenomena taking place, at a micro-, meso-, and macroscopic level, in materials/components/structures of any kind.
The journal aims to cover the cracking/mechanical behaviour of materials/components/structures in those situations involving both time-independent and time-dependent system of external forces/moments (such as, for instance, quasi-static, impulsive, impact, blasting, creep, contact, and fatigue loading). Since, under the above circumstances, the mechanical behaviour of cracked materials/components/structures is also affected by the environmental conditions, the journal would consider also those theoretical/experimental research works investigating the effect of external variables such as, for instance, the effect of corrosive environments as well as of high/low-temperature.
