Computational homogenisation from a 3D finite element model of asphalt concretelinear elastic computations ?
A 3D random mesoscale model of asphalt concrete is presented. Computational homogenisation using the finite element method is performed. Representative volume elements of a linear elastic composite are determined. Both the material contrast and the volume fraction govern the representative volume element size.
