Permanent deformation models for a granular material used in road pavements. Construction and Building Materials, 20 (9), pp. 790-800.

The study focuses on the evolution of the cumulative strain and includes a classification of the specimens according to the shakedown concept. This was done by fitting models that express the cumulative strain to cyclic loads and stress level. The predictions of the models were not absolutely perfect. The results with the granular material were not satisfactory enough to warrant their use in a low traffic road pavement section in Galicia (Spain).engCopyright © 2005 Elsevier Ltd.
