Abstract
- Complex modulus and phase angle of asphalt mix were calculated by heterogeneous method.
- Digital models consider a porous matrix and a random rigid skeleton in two dimensions.
- Numerical results agree with experimental measurements in several cases.
- Micromechanical analysis provides a better description of phenomenon at the grain level.
- Optimization of mechanical properties is associated to a better material design.
