Abstract
Asphalt is a strongly heterogeneous material, whose global thermo-mechanical behavior is generally studied at a large spatial scale. Observing the local strain fields which occur between aggregates and mastic (i.e., asphalt binder + filler) is however crucial to understand the phenomena that influence the global response of such materials, and then better design them. In this study, full-field measurements were used to investigate the difference in behavior between various types of asphalt containing Recycled Asphalt Pavement (RAP). We focused here on their response when they were subjected to freeze-thaw cycles. The local contraction/expansion of the specimens subjected to various cooling/heating phases was observed with the grid method. The strain distribution has been found to be very heterogeneous because of the difference in coefficient of thermal expansion between aggregates and mastic. The influence of the percentage of RAP on the global response of the specimen is observed and discussed.
