Predicting the rutting behaviour of natural fibre-reinforced cold mix asphalt using the finite element method

•Cold mix asphalt mixtures reinforced using natural fibres.•Modelling rutting phenomena of new CMA mixtures.•Model can properly predict rutting of reinforced and unreinforced CMA mixtures.•CMA quality is an important factor to reduce rutting within layer depth.•Results show that natural fibre has po...
