High- and Low-Temperature Properties and Thermal Stability of Silica Fume/SBS Composite-Modified Asphalt Mortar

open access: yesAdvances in Materials Science and Engineering, 2018
Recently, China has started paying more attention to environmental protection, and the efficient utilization of exhaust gases produced by smelting has emerged as a key problem concern. The silica fume collected from the exhaust gases produced by smelting

Limited Round Robin Asphalt Content Test Using Troxler Furnace [PDF]

open access: yes
The Asphalt Content by Ignition test can be used to determine the asphalt content of a hot mix asphalt (HMA). This test, developed by the National Center for Asphalt Technology (NCAT), burns the asphalt binder from a mix and thus allows the determination

A Generic Approach to Creating a National Soil Security Strategy

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Soil is a living and non‐renewable resource that underpins our very existence. It produces our food, filters our water, stores vast amounts of carbon, cycles essential nutrients, and sustains the rich tapestry of biodiversity on which our planet depends.

Laboratory performance of asphalt rubber mixtures [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Asphalt rubber mixtures are one of the most promising techniques to extend the service life of asphalt pavement overlays. Asphalt rubber binder is composed of crumb rubber from reclaimed tires and conventional asphalt.

Circular Economy Pathways for End‐of‐Life Wind Turbine Blades and Their Environmental Implications and Potential Urban Applications

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The rapid expansion of renewable energy, particularly wind power, is expected to generate large volumes of composite waste from end‐of‐life (EoL) turbine blades in the coming decades. Managing this material represents a significant environmental and logistical challenge worldwide.

Human‐Centered Monitoring of Asphalt Emissions: Linking Exposure, Climate, and Health

open access: yesSafety Science and Technology, EarlyView.
A human‐centered framework linking heat‐driven asphalt emissions to real‐world exposure, biological response, and functional health outcomes, highlighting how climate‐sensitive infrastructure can become a measurable, manageable source of urban environmental and health risk. ABSTRACT Urban infrastructure shapes environmental quality not only through its

Deflection‐based assessment of residual prestress in simply‐supported bridges accounting for creep variability

open access: yesStructural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract Several test methods have been proposed in the literature for measuring the level of residual prestress, most of them involving either semi‐ or fully destructive techniques for local measurements which could be highly sensitive to boundary conditions and execution details.

A probabilistic framework for modeling chloride‐induced corrosion and related load‐deformation behaviour of reinforced concrete

open access: yesStructural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract Chloride‐exposed reinforced‐concrete structures often suffer localized corrosion, so corrosion initiation time and average steel loss are poor indicators of structural performance. This paper presents a spatially resolved, proof‐of‐concept framework that couples diffusion‐based chloride ingress and initiation with a localized morphology model ...

Urbanisation and human activities influence the co‐occurrence of red squirrels Sciurus vulgaris and meso‐carnivores in Berlin, Germany

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Urban expansion is a major driver of habitat fragmentation, shrinking wildlife habitat, and restricting wildlife movements and activity patterns. In this novel environment, species must adapt to the new composition of wildlife communities. For example, red squirrels Sciurus vulgaris are commonly found in urban environments, while their potential ...
