Abstract This research aims to study the intelligent wireless sensor to improve the water permeability of permeable asphalt concrete pavement. The water permeability of pavement is extremely important for the traffic environment. This study first briefly introduces the background and significance analysis, and then exemplifies the deployment algorithm ...

The model for induction-healing asphalt concrete
Induction heating of asphalt concrete is accomplished by adding electrically conductive particles to the asphalt mixture, and heating them with an induction heating device. When the temperature of the asphalt concrete is higher than 30-70 °C, cracks may

Ultra-thin sealing surface treatments for solar radiation screening on asphalt facing dams
Bituminous materials are widely used in a large range of hydraulic applications due their excellent waterproofing properties. More than 300 asphalt facing reservoirs were built in the last century, presenting higher mechanical and hydraulic performance ...

The asphaltic concrete facing is one of the most widely used components for waterproofing rockfill dams. It is, particularly in the case of hydroelectric pumped storage facilities, often highly exposed to significant temperature fluctuations, which are caused by solar radiation, variation in the water level in the reservoir, frost in the winter season,

Caring with forests: Human and more‐than‐human care in forest occupations in Germany
Abstract Drawing on ongoing ethnographic and participatory action research within forest occupations in Germany, this paper develops the concept of ‘caring with forests’ to theorise the mutual, multidimensional relationships of care that emerge between humans and more‐than‐human beings in environmental protest settings.

Evalution of Hot Mix Asphalt Moisture Sensitivity Using the Nottingham Asphalt Test Equipment, July 2005 [PDF]
Moisture sensitivity of Hot Mix Asphalt (HMA) mixtures, generally called stripping, is a major form of distress in asphalt concrete pavement. It is characterized by the loss of adhesive bond between the asphalt binder and the aggregate (a failure of the ...
