Effects of complex soundscapes on the occurrence of Anaxipha pallidula in isolated green spaces in Tokyo

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Urban green spaces experience a mix of natural and anthropogenic noises, which could disrupt the vocal communication of several species. This study investigated how such complex soundscapes affect the occurrence of Anaxipha pallidula, which communicates through calls, focusing on both sound level and quality.

Hot Mix Asphalt with High RAP Content

open access: yesProcedia Engineering, 2015
AbstractDue to increasing cost of asphalt binder, significant economic savings can be realized using high content of reclaimed asphalt pavement (RAP) in the production of new hot mix asphalt (HMA). Moreover, this is an environmentally friendly alternative as it reduces the need for virgin materials.

A Bridge Transformer Network With Deep Graph Convolution for Hyperspectral Image Classification

open access: yesCAAI Transactions on Intelligence Technology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Transformers have been widely applied to hyperspectral image classification, leveraging their self‐attention mechanism for powerful global modelling. However, two key challenges remain as follows: excessive memory and computational costs from calculating correlations between all tokens (especially as image size or spectral bands increase) and ...

High Percentages of Reclaimed Asphalt Affect the Performance of Asphalt Binder [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
More than 90 percent of the road and highway network in the United States is paved with asphalt concrete. Maintenance and periodic rehabilitation require a continuous supply of aggregates and asphalt binder, both of which are becoming increasingly scarce

Obtaining the fatigue laws of bituminous mixtures from a strain sweep test: effect of temperature and aging [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Fatigue is associated with the deterioration caused by applying repeated loads, and is affected by temperature or aging. Generally, time sweep tests are used to simulate fatigue, in order to obtain the fatigue laws.
