The new 2002 AASHTO Guide for Pavement Design advocates the use of the resilient modulus parameter for the characterization of granular materials used as base and sub-base layers in flexible pavements. This mechanistic parameter is known to be influenced by the material physical conditions and the state of stress the material is subjected to. The research work reported herein examines the effect of one of the construction variables, namely compaction, on the resilient modulus. The study involves an analytical simulation, using the Discrete Element Method (DEM), to quantify the effect of compaction, as measured by relative density, on the resilient modulus. It consists in performing analytical simulations on an assembly of particles compacte...
