Abstract
In this study, Marshall test results of hot mix asphalt samples having various Hydrated Lime (HL) content rates were modelled using Fuzzy Logic (FL) and Artificial Neural Networks (ANN). Test sets having various HL content were prepared in order to investigate the effect of HL. Marshall Stability test was performed on the samples to obtain the optimal Asphalt Content (AC) ratio. The results were evaluated in order to determine HL additives’ sensitivity on the mixture parameters. The Marshall Test results were used to develop the FL and ANN models. The models developed produced acceptable estimations of the mixture parameters.
期刊介绍:
The scope of Teknik Dergi is naturally confined with the subjects falling in the area of civil engineering. However, the area of civil engineering has recently been significantly enlarged, even the definition of civil engineering has somewhat changed.
Half a century ago, engineering was simply defined as “the art of using and converting the natural resources for the benefit of the mankind”. Today, the same objective is expected to be realised (i) by complying with the desire and expectations of the people concerned and (ii) without wasting the resources and within the sustainability principles. This change has required an interaction between engineering and social and administrative sciences. Some subjects at the borderline between civil engineering and social and administrative sciences have consequently been included in the area of civil engineering.
Teknik Dergi defines its scope in line with this understanding. However, it requires the papers falling in the borderline to have a significant component of civil engineering.
