Aftasten/Tantear: A sensorial, coalitional wayfinding among Muslim runners

open access: yesFeminist Anthropology, EarlyView.
Abstract Muslim recreational runners in Muslim‐minority settings that take up running as their preferred form of leisure indicate that they feel they have to navigate a sense of exclusion when running outdoors. This article explores the process of exploration and sensing in public, represented by the Dutch verb aftasten, to investigate the way Muslim ...

OPTIMIZING ASPHALT MIXTURES TO BE HEATED BY MICROWAVE

open access: yesProceedings 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 ...

Advanced Functional Materials for Marine Energy Utilization

open access: yesInterdisciplinary Materials, EarlyView.
Marine renewable energy is an important future clean energy supply. We construct and sort out the material system for marine energy capture and conversion, transmission, storage, and utilization for the first time. ABSTRACT Several features of marine energy, including large reserves, sustainable utilization, environmental friendliness, make it a ...

Effect of aging kinetics on the fatigue behavior of asphalt mixtures incorporating various RAP contents

open access: yesTransportation Engineering
Aging significantly impacts the mechanical performance of asphalt mixtures, particularly in terms of fatigue resistance. Although several studies have investigated the fatigue behavior of asphalt mixtures with and without reclaimed asphalt pavement (RAP),

Effect of filler nature and content on the bituminous mastic behaviour under cyclic loads [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The role of the filler in asphalt mixtures is particularly important because of its influence on mastic behaviour. The filler improves the resistance properties of bitumen against the action of traffic loads and temperature.

The Use of Steel Slag in Asphaltic Mixture

open access: yesKey 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 ...

Associations of Outdoor Air Pollution With Incidence of Cancers Other Than Lung Cancer in a Large US Prospective Cohort

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
Associations between outdoor air pollution and cancers other than lung cancer remain unclear, particularly in the context of tobacco use. Here, the authors assessed possible links between ambient air pollutant exposure and incidence of 20 non‐lung cancers among adults followed over a 25‐year period in the United States.
