This volume gathers the latest advances, innovations, and
applications in the field of accelerated pavement testing (APT),
presented at the 6th International Conference on Accelerated
Pavement Testing, in Nantes, France, in April 2022. Discussing APT,
which involves rapid testing of full-scale pavement constructions
for structural deterioration, the book covers topics such as APT
facilities, APT of asphalt concrete and sustainable/innovative
materials, APT for airfield pavements, testing of maintenance and
rehabilitation solutions, testing of smart and multi-functional
pavements, data analysis and modeling, monitoring and
non-destructive testing, and efficient means of
calibrating/developing pavement design methods. Featuring
peer-reviewed contributions by leading international researchers
and engineers, the book is a timely and highly relevant resource
for materials scientists and engineers interested in determining
the performance of pavement structures during their service life
(10+ years) in a few weeks or months.

Premature cracking in asphalt pavements and overlays continues to
shorten pavement lifecycles and creates significant economic and
environmental burden. In response, RILEM Technical Committee TC
241-MCD on Mechanisms of Cracking and Debonding in Asphalt and
Composite Pavements has conducted a State-of-the-Art Review (STAR),
as detailed in this comprehensive book. Cutting-edge research
performed by RILEM members and their international partners is
presented, along with summaries of open research questions and
recommendations for future research. This book is organized
according to the theme areas of TC 241-MCD - i.e., fracture in the
asphalt bulk material, interface debonding behaviour, and advanced
measurement systems. This STAR is expected to serve as a long term
reference for researchers and practitioners, as it contributes to a
deeper fundamental understanding of the mechanisms behind cracking
and debonding in asphalt concrete and composite pavement systems.

This book presents the latest advances in research to analyze
mechanical damage and its detection in multilayer systems. The
contents are linked to the Rilem TC241 - MCD scientific activities
and the proceedings of the 8th RILEM International Conference on
Mechanisms of Cracking and Debonding in Pavements (MCD2016).
MCD2016 was hosted by Ifsttar and took place in Nantes, France, on
June 7-9, 2016. In their lifetime, pavements undergo degradation
due to different mechanisms of which cracking is among the most
important ones. The damage and the fracture behavior of all its
material layers as well as interfaces must be understood. In that
field, the research activities aims to develop a deeper fundamental
understanding of the mechanisms responsible for cracking and
debonding in asphalt concrete and composite (e.g. asphalt overlays
placed on PCC or thin cement concrete overlay placed on asphalt
layer) pavement systems.
