Constant crosshead rate compression tests were conducted at temperatures between 25°C and 55°C, and data were analyzed to construct the stresslog reduced-time master curves for various strain levels. Research results indicate that HMA with growing damage remains thermorheologically simple in the temperature range used in this study and that the time–temperature shift factor is only a function of temperature and is independent of the strain level. Two types of tests, the repeated creep and recovery test and the cyclic sinusoidal loading test, were performed in this study to validate the time–temperature superposition in loading histories commonly used in asphalt mixture testing. The results further confirm that the time–temperature superposition is valid for HMA with growing damage and permanent deformation and that the response of HMA depends only on the reduced loading history. }, number={1832}, journal={BITUMINOUS PAVING MIXTURES 2003}, author={Zhao, YQ and Kim, YR}, year={2003}, pages={161–172} }
