Abstract To investigate the impact of mesoscale skeleton optimization on the fracture resistance of asphalt mixes, the relationship between the contact behaviors of coarse aggregates on the dominant skeleton and the fracture resistance of asphalt mixes at the mesoscale was studied. Based on the particle accumulation theory and mesoscale contact mechanics, the coordination number of particles contact force (Cnpcf) for coarse aggregates was modified to characterize the mesoscale contact characteristics in the dominant structure. And nine kinds of asphalt mixes with diffrent meso-structural garadations were designed. Appropriate fracture resistance evaluation criteria were identified based on the semicircular bending test (SCB). Co-processing for digital images on specimen surfaces after the SCB test was implemented by Python programming, and the regularity of fracture extension with varied Cnpcf was explored at the mesoscale. Finally, the gray correlation between various structure characteristic parameters and fracture performance was comprehensively analyzed according to the gray relational analysis and entropy theory. The results indicated that the strength and energy indicators of the asphalt mixture exhibited the trend of increasing and then decreasing with the increase of Cnpcf. When Cnpcf eaquals to 7.35, the asphalt mixture has better fracture resistance (σm=1.18 MPa, Gf=3 003.4 J/m2, CRI=509.1). Moreover, the crack area and length expands linearly with the increasing of loading displacement, but the loading displacement was not consistent for notably appeared cracks appeared under varying Cnpcf. Thus, the capacity of the mix resisting fracture dilation will be enhanced by restricting the Cnpcf between 7.2 and 7.6. Significant gray correlations of Cnpcf with fracture resistance on both energy and strength levels were observed under distinct temperature conditions, which provides new perspectives for optimizing asphalt mixture performance at mesoscales.
