Micro Abstract:
We have recently extended a method to obtain 3D synthetic models of hot mix asphalt by capturing the particle size distribution. The model is applied in the context of first-order strain driven homogenisation.
The morphological accuracy of the model is compared to XRCT data by means of several common shape measures.
Furthermore, the usefulness of the homogenised mechanical properties is assessed by comparing to master-curve data of the mixture scale.
