  • Patent number: 11549225
    Abstract: A device is for detecting compaction and shear strength characteristics of an asphalt mixture during construction compaction. The device includes a fixed frame and a detection system. The detection system includes a display, a control panel, a test claw, an electric motor, a lift switch, a torque sensor and a temperature sensor. The control panel includes a power switch for controlling the electric motor and a speed regulator for controlling a rotation speed of the test claw. An output end of the electric motor is connected to an input end of the torque sensor, and an output end of the torque sensor is connected to an input end of the test claw. An output end of the test claw is provided with a claw-shaped blade. The claw-shaped blade is provided therein with the temperature sensor.

  • Patent number: 11221286
    Abstract: The present invention discloses a method for detecting compaction and shear strength characteristics of an asphalt mixture during construction compaction. The method mainly includes the following steps: using a device for detecting compaction and shear strength characteristics of the asphalt mixture; pressing a test claw into the asphalt mixture during construction; rotating the test claw slowly and uniformly to measure an internal temperature and a shear characteristic of the mixture during paving and subsequent compaction; calculating a corresponding compaction detection index based on the shear characteristic; and monitoring and guiding the construction quality and construction process accordingly based on the real-time detection index. The present invention measures the compaction detection index of the asphalt mixture during compaction simply, quickly and accurately.

  • Publication number: 20210090326
    Abstract: A modeling method for an asphalt mixture by coupling a discrete element method (DEM) and a finite difference method (FDM). Aggregates of an asphalt mixture are processed by a DEM, and a finite difference method is used to implement continuous medium simulation of an asphalt binder in the asphalt mixture. The influence of the coupling of the DEM and the finite difference method on mechanical properties of the asphalt mixture such as the strength and modulus are considered, to implement simulation of the deformation, shrinkage, cracking, etc. of a multiphase material in the asphalt mixture under different load. The method can accurately restore a void structure and true shapes and sizes of the aggregates and a binder in the asphalt mixture, and can characterize distribution characteristics thereof.
