(b) laboratory tests of HMA mixtures for determining susceptibility to top-down cracking especially on heavy-duty asphalt pavements. It has been believed that TDC is caused by either tension stress or shear stress in the top asphalt layer(s). In this paper which involves seven sub-models and one cracking initiation criterion. The cracking initiation model takes into account the effects of aging and healing on the cracking performance of asphalt mixtures. If the load-induced damage to the asphalt pavement exceeds the limited strain ...For Project NCHRP 1-42: Top-Down Fatigue Cracking of Hot-Mix Asphalt Layers LIMITED USE DOCUMENT This Interim Report is furnished only for review by members of the NCHRP project panel and is regarded as fully privileged.
