Studies About Hot Mix Asphalt Density by Means of Fuzzy Clustering Techniques

The study of the compaction of an asphalt mix is difficult due to the high number of variables and the non-linear nature of the relationships among them. This research was supported by an experiment in which, in addition to the survey of many environmental variables, a device for measuring electrical impedance has recorded the hot mix asphalt density during execution. Subsequently, the application of a clustering technique has allowed us to classify the most important variables in the definition of the phenomenon.
