Rheology of Asphalt Binder Modified with 5W30 Viscosity Grade Waste Engine Oil

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2018
The pavement structure tends to shrink under low temperature conditions and cracks will appear upon crossing threshold binder stiffness. Decreasing the binder viscosity at such low temperatures, by introducing additional oil fraction (aromatics and ...

Brittle Point of Asphalt and Asphaltic Mixtures.

open access: yesJournal of The Japan Petroleum Institute, 1996
本研究は種々のアスファルトを用い, 流動からぜい性に転移する種々のぜい化点を求めるため, アスファルトではフラースぜい化点試験, 森吉ぜい化点試験, アスファルト混合物では熱応力試験, 曲げ試験を行い, それぞれから得られる種々のぜい化点の相互の関係について述べている。実験の結果, 本研究は種々のアスファルトおよびそのアスファルトを用いたアスファルト混合物の各種試験から求められた4種のぜい化点は互いに密接な関係にあることを明らかにした。また, アスファルト舗装の対象地域の外気温や舗装表面温度とわだち掘れや亀裂をも考慮した合理的なアスファルトの選定法についても提案した。

Viability analysis and the importance of fine‐scale variables influencing roadkills of a toad population

open access: yesThe Journal of Wildlife Management, EarlyView.
Fine‐scale population variables better explain roadkill patterns in natterjack toads (Epidalea calamita) than habitat proxies, with mortality driven mainly by local abundance, reduced by roadside embankments, and decreasing as the season advanced. Despite high roadkills, population viability analyses indicate no immediate extinction risk under current ...

Comfort in the canopy: How urban treescapes affect human thermal comfort in a temperate climate

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract People living in urban centres are exposed to higher levels of heat stress than those living outside of these areas; this is intensified by the urban heat island effect. Heat stress is a concern for the more vulnerable members of society and can exacerbate many medical conditions; excessive heat increases morbidity and mortality rates.

Effect of foamed asphalt on the properties of the asphalt mixture with reclaimed asphalt pavement

open access: yesRoads and Bridges – Drogi i Mosty
The paper presents the effects of foamed asphalt modified with synthetic wax (SWLC) and tall oil amidopolyamine (TOA) at 1.5% m/m and 0.4% m/m, respectively, on an asphalt mixture containing reclaimed asphalt pavement (RAP). The experimental plan and research methodology for determining the properties of the innovative foamed asphalt are presented. The
