Atomistic Characterization and Modeling of the Deformation and Failure Properties of Asphalt-Aggregate Interface

This dissertation is dedicated to develop models and methods to bridge atomistic and continuum scales of deformation processes in asphalt-aggregate interfacial composite materials systems. The deformation and failure behaviors, e.g. nanoscale strength, deformation, stiffness, and adhesion/cohesion a...
