Self-Healing of Dense Asphalt Concrete by Two Different Approaches: Electromagnetic Induction and Infrared Radiation
Abstract Cracks in asphalt mixture can self-heal if enough resting time (hours or days) is given. This is a viscosity dependent phenomenon that can be accelerated by increasing the temperature of asphalt mixture. In the present paper, the healing performance of asphalt mixture heated using infrared heating to simulate the natural solar radiation, and induction heating, a new method to increase the temperature of asphalt pavements, were compared in terms of time and healing temperature. Healing was defined as the relationship between the 3-point bending strength of an asphalt beam before and after healing. The results show that both methods reach similar and satisfactory healing rates at around 90 %. However, induction heating is more energy-efficient, since the effect is concentrated on the binder, instead of heating the whole mix. This means much shorter healing times to reach the same healing rate than with infrared radiation. Finally, it was found an optimal radiation energy, from which on, infrared radiation reduces the material healing properties.
