Influence of Macrotexture and Microtexture on the Skid Resistance of Aggregates by Bowen Guan, Jiayu Wu, Chao Xie, Jianhong Fang, Haile Zheng, Huaxin Chen

“…The results showed that the PSV development was approximately divided into 3 stages including accelerated attenuation stage, decelerated attenuation stage, and stabilization stage. There is a critical point of the entire polishing cycles. When the number of the polishing cycles exceeds this critical point, microtexture replaces macrotexture to play a major role in the skid resistance of aggregates. …”
