Fatigue Behavior of Cement Asphalt Emulsion Mortar
As one of the key components of non-ballast slab track in high speed railway, cement asphalt emulsion mortar (CAM) has low compressive strength and low elastic modulus. This makes CAM possible to be served as supporting, height-adjusting, vibration-dissipating and deformation-fitting sandwich-layer between pre-stress slab and concrete roadbed. To study the fatigue behavior of the CAM, fatigue tests were conducted at room temperature and negative temperature, respectively. The permanent strain, elastic modulus and yield strength of fatigue-tested specimens were compared to the reference one. The results showed that the small permanent deformation lead to very little displacement differences among the slab track system. Secondly, the elastic modulus and yield strength of fatigue test specimens were both higher than that of reference one. Because the fatigue process might strengthen the CAM by compacting micro-cracks. Additionally, arising from the temperature sensitivity of asphalt, viscosity behavior of asphalt mortar at room temperature is changed to brittleness behavior at negative temperature.
