Summary
This paper is concerned with the modeling of the behavior of a flexible pavement
under vehicule or impact forces. The model is built with the finite element method
and allows to take into account the viscoelasticity which characterise the bituminous
materials. The complex modulus of these materials, depending on frequency and temperature,
is integrated to a dynamic frequency calculation. Comparisons are then conducted
with a time algorithm and current constant modulus.
