Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue focuses on the basic characteristics, mi- design methods, performance testing and evaluation of asphalt binder and asphalt mixture. In recent years, with the rapid development of expressways, asphalt pavement is used increasingly widely. With the innovation of new materials and the emergence of new technology, traditional asphalt mixture has been injected with new vitality. People not only pay attention to how to use it, but also pay more attention to its mechanism of action and how to increase its durability. Focusing on advanced new materials and their applications, we accept relevant academic articles from the aspects of technical performance evaluation, mix design, testing techniques and performance evaluation, micro- and macro-analysis, numerical simulation, etc., hoping to promote the development of asphalt and asphalt mixture technology, focusing on its long-term durability and functional characteristics.

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Applied Sciences is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.
