[Purposes] In order to explore the factors that affect the reflective cracks on asphalt pavement, this study attempts to analyze the stress changes inside the road under different temperatures. [Method] First, the reflective cracks at the bottom of the semi-rigid base were selected as the research object, and the stress intensity factor and J-integral of the tip of the reflective cracks were used as the evaluation indexes. Then, a generalized Maxwell model was established based on the finite element method to analyze the stress changes inside the road under the action of temperature. Finally, The change laws of the evaluation index of reflective crack tip in semi-rigid base course under different tire pressure, vehicle speed and temperature-driving load coupling were explored. [Findings] According to the evaluation index comparison, when the vehicle speed increased from 30 km/h to 150 km/h, the maximum values of the stress intensity factors (mode I and mode Ⅱ) decreased by 2.79% and 5.62% respectively. Compared to the driving speed of 150 km/h, the J-integral corresponding to 30 km/h increased by 18.0%. When the tire contant pressures increased from 0.5 MPa to 1.3 MPa, both the maximum values of the stress intensity factors (mode I and mode Ⅱ) increased by 160%. The impact of tire contant pressure on the stress intensity factor of reflective cracks was greater than that of driving speed. Under the vehicle-temperature coupling conditions, the stress intensity factor of mode I was consistently higher than that of mode Ⅱ, and the cracking of transverse reflective cracks in the asphalt pavement base was a composite crack dominated by mode I. The value of the J-integral was 3.6×10-3 N/m under low temperature-load conditions, and the value was significantly higher than that of high temperature-load and load acting alone. [Conclusions] Low temperature and overload have the most significant impact on the propagation of reflective cracks on the pavement, and the detection of reflective cracks on asphalt pavement should be strengthened in winter.
