Effect of Aging on the Properties of Asphalt and Asphalt Mixtures
Ingenieria y Universidad, 2015 This article presents the results of the analysis of the effect of aging on the properties of asphalt and asphalt mixtures. The objective of this study was to compare the properties of the original asphalt and aged asphalt and the dynamic modulus of asphalt mixtures. The long-term aging was simulated by using Pressure Asphalt Vessel (PAV). Marshall and

From Plot to Block: Participatory Land Use for Climate‐Resilient Detached Housing in Finland
Sustainable Development, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This study investigates how urban planning in Finland is adapting to climate change, focusing on the practical challenges planners face in single‐family housing areas. It draws on participatory workshops with municipal planners in Pori and Joensuu, where three planning tools—green factor metrics, impermeable surface limits, and the 3–30‐300 ...

AI‐Driven Circular Construction Waste Management for Advancing Sustainable Development
Sustainable Development, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Construction and demolition waste (C&DW) represents up to 40% of global solid waste, posing a significant barrier to achieving circular economy (CE) objectives and the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), particularly SDG 11 and SDG 12. However, construction waste management (CWM) systems remain constrained by fragmented data environments ...

OPTIMIZING ASPHALT MIXTURES TO BE HEATED BY MICROWAVE
Proceedings 17th International Conference on Microwave and High Frequency Heating, 2019 Over the last ten years the concept of self healing in asphalt mixtures for roads pavements has been reaching great importance due to the fact that this capability allows a material to recuperate original properties after failure. This new generation of asphalt paving materials would allow road agencies to save no renewable resources as aggregates and ...

Wildlife 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 ...

The Use of Steel Slag in Asphaltic Mixture
Key Engineering Materials, 2004 Steel slag is a residue produced by refining iron to steel in open-hearth, basic oxygen and electric arc furnaces. It is liquid cooled from its molten state and has high density. The possibilities for the recycling of steel slag differ from country to country, depending on the chemical composition of the slags, steel making process, the national and ...

Wildlife 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.
