- This paper addressed a previously-unanswered question of how asphalt mixtures becomes cracked under compression, leading to the discovery of a new damage mechanism to interpret potholes and rutting in road surfaces. This work was invited for speeches at American Society of Civil Engineers’ Bituminous Material Committee Meeting, the US Transportation Research Board Annual Meetings (http://amonline.trb.org) and RILEM MCD2016 Conference (DOI:10.1007/978-94-024-0867-6). This work underpinned the multiphysics modelling framework in two EU's H2020 projects (AMAM 2017-19 £168,148 and HMAM 2018-20 £173,347) led by the author. This work led to further developments of new applications at Michigan State Univ.(Prof. Emin Kutay, US) 10.1080/10298436.2017.1279492
