'Simulation of Shakedown Behavior for Flexible Pavement's Unbound Granular Layer

Full-depth asphalt concrete pavements are generally designed to control fatigue cracking and reduce potential rutting when subjected to repeated heavy traffic loads. A particular interesting question is whether a limit load exists below which excitation shakedown in the sense that the granular layer...
