The invention discloses a
gradation design method for coarse aggregate in an
asphalt mixture,
computer equipment and a storage medium, and relates to the field of
asphalt mixtures. The design method comprises the following steps: constructing a stacking model; the stacking model comprises a second
rigid wall body arranged on the radial periphery; replacing the second
rigid wall body with a flexible confining pressure wall body, and performing
servo to obtain a three-dimensional
discrete element model; the flexible confining pressure wall body comprises a plurality of spherical particles capable of transmitting pressure in the radial direction; applying a preset radial load and a preset
axial load, and extracting a normal
contact force, a
tangential contact force, a normal vector, a tangential vector, a
branch vector, a normal
branch vector and a tangential
branch vector of each contact; constructing a constitutive
anisotropy coefficient; and determining the optimal
gradation of each grade of coarse aggregate according to the relationship between the weighted structure stress coefficient of the second coarse aggregate aggregate and the
axial strain of the second coarse aggregate aggregate under the preset
axial load and radial load. According to the invention, the defect of
poor correlation between a volume design method and pavement performance is overcome, and the designed
gradation has excellent mechanical properties.
