This study mainly investigates the prediction models of shear parameters and dynamic creep instability for asphalt mixture under different high temperatures to reveal the instability mechanism of the rutting for asphalt pavement. Cohesive force c and internal friction angle φ in the shear strength parameters for asphalt mixture were obtained by the triaxial compressive strength test. Then, through analyzing the influence of different temperatures on parameters c and φ, the prediction models of shear strength parameters related to temperature were developed. Meanwhile, the corresponding forecast model related to confining pressure and shear strength parameters was obtained by simplifying the calculation method of shear stress level on the failure surface under cyclic loading. Thus, the relationship of shear stress level with temperature was established. Furthermore, the cyclic time FN of dynamic creep instability at 60 °C was obtained by the triaxial dynamic creep test, and the effects of confining pressure and shear stress level were considered. Results showed that FN decreases exponentially with the increase in stress levels under the same confining pressure and increases with the increase in confining pressure. The ratio between shear stress level and corresponding shear strength under the same confining pressure was introduced; thus, the relationship curve of FN with shear stress level can eliminate the effect of different confining pressures. The instability prediction model of FN for asphalt mixture was established using exponential model fitting analysis, and the rationality of the model was verified. Finally, the change rule of the parameters in the instability prediction model was investigated by further changing the temperature, and the instability forecast model in the range of high temperature for the same gradation mixture was established by the interpolation calculation.
