Abstract

Presently,it is not reached consensus for asphalt mittures fatigue failure criterion. In this paper,based onthe dissipated energy method,the relative change rate of dissipated energy is put forward to characterize the damageaccumulation in the fatigue test process of asphalt mixtures,and the catastrophe point of the relative change ratebased on variable step is taken as the fatigue failure criterion of asphalt mixtures,with a theoretical proof being alsopresented.Then,with the help of this criterion,the feasibility of the proposed prediction model of fatigue performance,which is independent of the load control mode,is verified.
