Popis: Abstract Relevant mechanical parameters of asphalt composites, such as the dynamic modulus and phase angle, are obtained by means of four-point bending tests. It is a dynamic test based on the application of sinusoidal load pulses and sinusoidal displacement response. A sinusoidal response can be difficult to record due to different issues, such as noise during an experiment. In strain-controlled tests with the application of a low-load amplitude with asphalt mixtures at high temperatures composed with calcined clay, which is the case of the test carried out in this study, a relationship was observed between the apparent noise recorded and the frequencies of the beam’s natural vibration. This outcome led to the conclusion that these imperfections are not a result of failures in the procedure, but of the natural behavior of the beam. This conclusion can assist in the filtering of information to obtain better results.
