Unified DSC Constitutive Model for Pavement Materials with Numerical Implementation

Need for unified and mechanistic constitutive models for pavement materials for evaluation of various distresses has been recognized; however, such models are not yet available. There have been efforts to develop unified models; however, they have been based usually on ad hoc combinations of models for special properties such as elastic, plastic, creep and fracture, often without appropriate connections to various coupled responses of bound and unbound materials, they may result and in a large number of parameters, often without physical meanings. The disturbed state concept (DSC) provides a modeling approach that includes various responses such as elastic, plastic, creep, microcracking and fracture, softening and healing under mechanical and environmental (thermal, moisture, etc.) within a single unified and coupled framework. A brief review is presented to identify the advantages of the DSC compared to other available models. The DSC has been validated and applied to a wide range of materials: geologic,...
