Title:
Ice-Pavement Bond Disbonding: Fundamental Study
Abstract:
This fundamental study of the ice-pavement bond structure and the mechanics of its formation provides a basis for the development of techniques and devices for destroying or disrupting the ice-pavement bond once it has formed. The destruction process of the ice-substrate bond is explored. The report also characterizes the physical and chemical processes that cause deterioration in the bond formed between ice and asphalt and portland cement concretes. Finally, the report makes recommendations for further work to develop practical solutions for destroying the ice-pavement bond.
