Nahar, S.N. (author), Schmets, A.J.M. (author), Kasbergen, C. (author), Schitter, G (author), Scarpas, Athanasios (author)Self-healing of bitumen is a property that positively contributes to the sustainability, maintenance requirements and cost effectiveness of asphalt pavements. Ideally one would like to design an asphalt mix with a well-defined healing potential. Although substantial research efforts have been dedicated to the healing mechanism in bitumen,...conference paper 2016

Nahar, S.N. (author), Schmets, A.J.M. (author), Scarpas, A. (author), Schitter, G. (author)Bitumen is the binder in the composite material named asphalt concrete. Under cyclic mechanical loading of traffic passing over the pavement, eventually damage will initiate in the pavement, leading to eventual structural failure. This damaging process is accelerated by time dependent change of the mechanical properties of asphalt concrete due...conference paper 2013
