Study on the Influence of Asphalt Content on Fatigue Life of Asphalt Mixture
Abstract The fatigue failure form of asphalt pavement is not reflected in the design index of asphalt mixture proportion when determining the optimum asphalt content in the existing asphalt mixture proportion design. In order to solve the problem, the effect of different asphalt content on the fatigue life of three types of asphalt ...

Synthesis of functionalized polyolefins in a new continuous bench‐scale reactor apparatus
Abstract In‐reactor functionalized polyolefins (FPOs), produced by molecular catalysts, are a new class of polymer materials with applications ranging from high performance adhesives to bitumen compatibilization. In this work, we disclose a procedure for the synthesis of FPOs in a new Continuous Bench‐scale Reactor Apparatus (COBRA).

Human‐in‐the‐Loop Swarms: A Bionic Swarm Approach to Real‐World Soil Mapping
This article introduces the “Bionic Swarm,” a novel system that lowers the barriers to real‐world swarm validation by abstracting difficult hardware tasks to app‐guided human agents. We demonstrate the system's utility through the experimental validation of a geotechnical soil‐mapping swarm algorithm and show superior performance to baseline approaches

The pelvis doesn't walk by itself: Wider pelves reduce the cost of walking over unstable surfaces
Abstract Walking over variable and/or unstable terrain is a key aspect of daily life and was crucial to the evolution of bipedalism. The ability to find gait solutions that maintained stability over uneven terrain for the least increase in metabolic cost was likely a hallmark of locomotor effectiveness in early humans, in particular acting as an ...
