摘要:

为了揭示粗集料轮廓形态特征对沥青混合料细观力学的影响机制,该文采用数字图像处理技术获取粗集料轮廓特征,构建多形态特征粗集料离散元模型,结合单轴贯入虚拟试验系统研究了集料几何形态对沥青混合料细观力学响应的影响。研究结果表明:集料颗粒间接触点处存在拉/压混合应力模式,接触点处压应力比例为40%~50%,拉应力比例为10%~20%,拉压混合应力比例为30%~40%;单轴贯入荷载的作用导致微裂缝数量快速增长,针片状集料含量较高的混合料的粗集料模型中,集料-沥青界面的微裂缝较快连接形成贯穿裂缝,而对于立方体粗集料含量较高的混合料,界面微裂缝分布面积较小且应力水平较低;微裂缝主要由剪应力引发,其数量约占微裂缝总数的90%,由拉应力作用的微裂缝数量较少,约占微裂缝总数的10%;微裂缝最长达到10 mm,最短长度为0.2 mm左右;对于立方体粗集料较多的混合料,骨架嵌挤作用可以有效抵抗荷载作用。研究成果为沥青路面施工过程中的粗集料筛选,以及提升粗集料加工质量提供了理论依据。

Abstract:

To reveal the influence mechanism of coarse aggregate profile characteristics on the meso-mechanical properties of asphalt mixtures, this study employed digital image processing technology to obtain the profile characteristics of coarse aggregates and constructed discrete element models of coarse aggregates with multiple morphological features. Combined with a virtual uniaxial penetration test system, the impact of aggregate geometry on the meso-mechanical response of asphalt mixtures was investigated. The results indicate that a mixed tensile-compressive stress mode exists at aggregate contact points, with compressive stress accounting for 40%~50%, tensile stress for 10%~20%, and mixed stresses for 30%~40% of the total. The application of uniaxial penetration load leads to rapid growth in microcrack numbers. In mixtures with higher elongated and flat aggregate content, microcracks at the aggregate-asphalt interface connect more readily to form through cracks, whereas mixtures with higher cubical aggregate content exhibit smaller microcrack distribution areas and lower stress levels. Microcracks are mainly induced by shear stress, accounting for about 90% of total microcracks; the number of microcracks caused by tensile stress is relatively small, accounting for about 10%. The maximum microcrack length reaches 10 mm, while the minimum is approximately 0.2 mm. For mixtures rich in cubical coarse aggregates, skeleton interlocking effectively resists loading. These findings provide theoretical support for coarse aggregate selection in asphalt pavement construction and quality improvement in aggregate processing.
