Abstract:In order to simulate discontinuum mechanics of asphalt pavement, a new numerical scheme - Meshfree Manifold Method is deduced by integrating Numerical Manifold Method and Mesh-free Method. It is not only appropriate for contact computation but also can eliminate the limitation of regular mesh method. Meanwhile, two useful element models were provided, kernel principles linkage of asphalt mastic and searching for support nodes were discussed. An example was given to show its efficiency in simulating discontinuous deformation of asphalt mixture. This method is promising in solving fracture or large deformation problems. ? 2009 ASCE.
