An Image-Based Finite Element Approach for Simulating Viscoelastic Response of Asphalt Mixture
This paper presents an image-based micromechanical modeling approach to predict the viscoelastic behavior of asphalt mixture. An improved image analysis technique based on the OTSU thresholding operation was employed to reduce the beam hardening effect in X-ray CT images. We developed a voxel-based...
