PURPOSES : The purpose of this study is to verify the influences on the compactibility evaluation of WMA (Warm Mix Asphalt) mixture by laboratory experiments. METHODS : Two types of WMA additives (chemical and wax types) and two types of compactors (marshall and gyratory) are used in laboratory experiments. In addition, two types of WMA processes (wet and dry) are tested to verify the impact of manufacturing process. RESULTS : The laboratory results show that the effects of compaction method on compactibility are different depending on the type of additive. The compaction method has a significant impact on WMA mixture with chemical type additive to extent that it determines whether required criterion is satisfied, but only little on WMA mixture with wax type additive. In the case of wet process for WMA mixture manufacturing, it is hard to assess the air void of HMA mixture made of same asphalt binder used in WMA mixture since the additive has already been added in asphalt binder. And the test results show that air voids of HMA mixture vary within properties of asphalt binder. CONCLUSIONS : Through this study, it is found that compactibility of WMA mixture is affected by the compaction methods depending on the additive types and by the WMA mixture manufacturing process. Therefore, those are recommended to be considered when evaluating compactibility of WMA mixtures.

이 논문은 유한요소해석의 전처리를 위한 3차원 구조물의 가하학적 모델링 방법을 제안하였다. 여기서 제안한 모델링 체계에 의하면 구조물의 모델은 조절점, 곡선, 곡면 및 입체의 계층적 구성에 따라서 단계적으로 형성된다. 혼성함수와 경계표현법을 기본으로하는 여러가지 곡면 및 입체의 모델링 방법을 유한요소망 발생에 적합하도록 체계화하였으며, 모델합성 및 연산방법을 제시하였다. 이를 바탕으로 새로운 유한요소해석 전처리 프로그램을 개발하였다.
